Book 1: The Island Beyond the Horizon
He’s rich, he’s a polyglot and he’s a 14th Century Casanova. But he’s also barely an adult, always at loggerheads with his family and just itching to leave his stuffy aristocratic manor.
Meet Michael Carter, who has just graduated from Oxford and wants to spend some time living life on his own terms but whose father wants him to run the estate already. As he returns home, he doesn’t quite get the standing ovation he had expected, for the rumours of his dalliances accompany him wherever he goes.
In walks Caroline William, a girl he barely remembers from his childhood but who nonetheless manages to make him fall head over heels in love.
But amidst their tranquil lives, a storm is brewing. A storm that threatens to change everything by leaving all of England, even the rich landlords, to fight for their very existence.
In the first volume of the Michael Carter saga, hop along with Michael in his early adulthood boots. See him fall in love, court disaster, try to save his skin and more importantly, understand whom he’d rather be.
