Stuart Harrison Books Overview
The Snow Falcon
A magnificent gyrfalcon, soaring in the air over rocky cliffs, is winged by a hunter and falls to earth wounded. Rescued and taken to a nearby farmhouse, the bird will irrevocably change the lives of her savior, Michael Somers, and the woman and child Somers comes to love. Somers has returned after many years to his hometown of Little River Bend to unlock the secrets from his own past that almost drove him to destroy his family in one night of irrational violence. Released from treatment but shunned by his neighbors, Somers is determined to heal the bird, whom he has named Cully, and release her to freedom. Watching from afar as Somers coaxes the bird to fly is a deeply troubled little boy, Jamie Baker. Jamie has lost the power of speech after witnessing his father’s death in a hunting accident, and his mother, Susan, yearns to free her child from his self made prison. Slowly, a tender emotional bond forms between the desperately lonely child, his mother, and the strange man who seems able to heal. But soon they find themselves in terrible danger as the hunter who tried to kill Cully stalks her again and plans to wreak vengeance on Somers. This is an extraordinarily moving novel about passion, heartbreak, and the possibility of redemption.

Aphrodite’s Smile
A novel of romantic suspense, set on the beautiful Greek island of Ithaca. When Robert French travels to the Greek island of Ithaca after his archaeologist father goes missing, he meets Alex, a young woman in search of her roots and the truth about her grandmother’s exile from the island sixty years earlier. Gradually it seems possible that there is a link between an ancient treasure that Robert’s father spent many years searching for and the tragic events surrounding Alex’s grandmother during the Second World War. But suddenly Alex vanishes, and Robert is embroiled in a desperate search, for the woman and for the solution that had evaded his father. To find the truth he must come to understand his own past and learn to face the troubled relationships that have dominated his life. Atmospheric, tense and compelling, this blend of classical myth with ancient and recent history creates a memorable and thrilling novel.
