  THE GIRL BROWNIES – ASHDOWN FOREST, ENGLAND 1919 
  Book 3 of 6 The Secret of the Whispering Woods 
  The summary of this third book in the series is as follows: 
  In October 1919, the Brownies—Lulu, Minnie, Lottie, Agatha, Bernadette, and Beryl—embark on a moonlit meteor-watching hike in Ashdown Forest. Their adventure takes a supernatural turn when whispers guide them to a hidden stone circle, where eerie phenomena unfold: cracking monoliths, sentient mist, and ghostly visions. With archaeologist Dr. Eleanor Finch, they uncover the circle's secrets—an ancient Druid observatory using piezoelectric stones and sound channels to create "ghostly" projections. 
  Deciphering Saxon clues, the girls find buried crown jewels tied to King Harold, while scientific explanations (infrasound, ley lines) blend with local folklore about whispering spirits. Minnie's discovery of a royal artifact proves the stones guarded Harold's lost treasure. Though science explains much, the forest's final whisper—"More secrets await..."—hints at deeper mysteries. 
  I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music, “Joyful Journey”, which does run to approximately 2 minutes sets the scene, so to speak, recorder, tambourine,guitar and accordion in a folk/classical and cheerful mood. The closing music, “Bloom”, ends the tale on with more of the same at about 2 minutes and the same musical instruments etc. but more of an ending feel and looking forward to the next story in the series.  
  The story and music itself runs to just about 14 minutes and is narrated in my wife's voice, Claire, who actually was a ranger guide!  
  I do hope you enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come

  Salvador arrives in the United States from Argentina with one big, unfocused goal: to become successful at something. He knows that America is the land of opportunity, and if he works hard, he will triumph. 
  Together with his childhood sweetheart, he settles in the Big Apple, where dreams come true. 
  But this ambitious young immigrant soon learns that it takes more than hard work and charisma to succeed and is changed by the harsh realities of living in New York. 
  Everyone has advice for Salvador as he moves from one dead-end job to another, attempting to reinvent himself. But the best advice comes from the loving letters he gets from his father. They keep him grounded and remind him of the man he wants to be until he loses this moral compass the day his father succumbs to diabetes. 
  As the 1960s roll into the 1970s and America and Salvador become less innocent, he finds himself in California, where he starts his own business, and it finally looks like the American Dream is within his grasp. 
  But things get complicated when Argentina is involved in a war in the early 1980s, and Salvador must decide where his allegiances lie. One wrong decision and bold act can bring his dreams crumbling down, and Salvador soon realizes that there are consequences for being impulsive and disloyal. 
  In the end, Salvador learns that there are boundaries men should not cross and that the love of family is the only worthwhile dream Americans should pursue. 
  Spanning decades, Let Us Begin is a moving story filled with joy and despair about a family searching for a home and a place to belong.

This summary is not intended to substitute the original book, but to offer a concise overview and interpretation of its main ideas. 
   
  Act of Oblivion is a sweeping historical thriller set in the turbulent aftermath of the English Civil War. It follows the gripping manhunt for Edward Whalley and William Goffe, two of the most wanted men in the British Empire—regicides who signed the death warrant of King Charles I and vanished into the New World to escape retribution. 
  Their pursuer is Richard Nayler, a tireless agent of the Crown obsessed with justice—or perhaps vengeance. As Whalley and Goffe live as fugitives across the raw, unforgiving landscape of 17th-century America, Nayler’s pursuit becomes a shadow war of secrecy, loyalty, and relentless determination. 
  This is not just a chase through history—it’s a profound exploration of conviction, sacrifice, and the long reach of power. Told with masterful pacing and emotional depth, Act of Oblivion invites listeners to confront the question: when you’ve risked everything for your beliefs, what happens when the world moves on without you? 
  Perfect for fans of historical fiction, political intrigue, and stories of unshakable purpose.
