Description
‘From the Shadows of my Mind’ is a novel about the meaning of life, set against the issues of class in society and never giving up on what you desire.
Rick Marshall, after leaving school in the 1960s, joins a company based in Deenbridge, his local town, offering work in protecting the natural environment. Disadvantaged by a working-class background, he doubts whether he can ever have a relationship with the classy daughter of one of the firm’s wealthy directors. Will his indecision cost him the woman he wants and will a mistake from the past come back to haunt him?
Sometimes fate and the future have their own plans to shape and control your destiny.
