Product Description
In The Ghost, Danielle Steel has brilliantly
interwoven past and present in a timeless novel
of courage, history and love.
With a wife he loves and an exciting London-based
career, Charles Waterston is quite unprepared for the
sudden end to his ten-year marriage - and his unwanted
transfer to the New York office. With nothing left to lose, and
with Christmas approaching; Charlie takes leave of absence
and drives through New England, hoping to make peace
with himself. A sudden, blinding snowstorm strands
him in a small town, where an elderly widow offers to rent
him an exquisite lakeside chateau hidden deep in the woods-
From the moment he sets foot inside, Charlie feels the
presence of Sarah, the beautiful young woman who lived
and died there two centuries ago - and on Christmas Eve, he
glimpses her for the first time. At first he thinks it is a trick
until he finds her diaries hidden away in an old trunk and, as
he turns the brittle, dusty pages and learns more about
Sarah, she starts to come alive for him.
From her arrival in America in 1789, Sarah writes of
her harrowing flight from England and her determination
to start a new life in the vast new world. She meets a
French nobleman who transforms her life, and their fateful
union has a love so powerful that it reaches across the
centuries. Her story gives Charlie the courage to let go
of his past, and the freedom to grasp a future
that is right before his eyes.
