SINCLAIRS RETREAT:
Over a number of marvellous vacations at Berida Manor in the picturesque Southern Highlands of New South Wales, I had the opportunity to observe and meet a variety of interesting people.
It fascinated me to hear their stories, their successes and failures, their triumphs and tragedies, and to speculate on their motives, actions and outcomes.
Often, following lengthy round-table discussions after dinner, I would retire to my room and jot down my impressions. Eventually I had so much material that I resolved to weave these personal journeys into a novel.
So, while persons, situations and times may have suffered a degree of poetic licence to protect identities, essentially all these stories and events are true and actually happened, the characters are depicted as accurately as possible.
A wide range of issues are raised. Loss, seeking, pathos, humour, infidelity, marriage break-down, jealousy, love and passion, all these feature in the real world. I find it of consuming interest to see how differently we all react.

BACK COVER
If you are as intrigued, as I am, by what makes people tick, how one individual’s actions can so influence another’s, then I hope my exploration of the many facets of human behaviour will cause you to think and consider, and to derive, if few answers, at least a degree of enjoyment and satisfaction. We none of us are alone in our struggle!
