Across Time - Collection Two indomitable women face challenges that disrupt their professional and personal worlds – how will they react? In seeking a new beginning what will they sacrifice? When Meryl Moorecroft and Marcia Ntuli cross paths with the law from opposite ends of the legal spectrum – one on human rights issues, the other on international crime – emotions are raw, and mental capacities are stretched when called to save their dignity and assert their self-respect amidst the voices that criticise and advise. Relationships are challenged with Meryl's choice to chase her creative muse. Marcia's confidence takes a beating when discrimination takes precedence over integrity and professionalism. A journey through Florence and South Africa reveals the spirit of human connectedness in adversity. History reappears when least expected in the revelations of fractured pasts, insularity, professional harassment and the capacity to live for others.
