The Weeping Sands is a captivating historical saga interweaving four tales of love and loss spanning four centuries, with a ruined mansion providing the links between past and present, whilst the `weeping sands` of the title, the Lavan Sands provide a melancholy background to the novel`s events.

Jenna Shaw, 32, children`s TV presenter, is invited to take par t in a TV show exploring her ancestry, a quest which will take her, ultimately, to the ruined mansion of Baron Hill, in Beaumaris, Anglesey. Four centuries earlier, Thomas Cheadle, despised for his affair with Lady Anne Bulkeley , and blamed for the death of her husband, prepares to play his part as the Civil War reaches Wales. Isobel Harcourt, recovering from a breakdown following a failed love affair with artist, James Pennington, and in the protection of her sister, is taken to Beaumaris, Anglesey, to convalesce. The year is 1831.

How do Isobel`s strange delusions link the past and the present? What will be the outcome of Jenna`s quest?
