IDEAS FOR NOVELS

                                                                 A FATAL FACADE

 

The idea for my forth-coming crime thriller came from discovering that for hundreds of years the Catholic church allowed abandoned babies [ usually illegitimate ] to be left in a small wheel in a room in the walls of convents in Italy. The anonymous mother then rang a bell and the wheel was moved around so that the baby was brought inside the convent and was eventually adopted. Isn’t that amazing? What’s even more amazing is that this practice is still continuing today!
