The seeds from one man’s romantic trysts with four different women have germinated as he flees the 1974 Turkish invasion of Cyprus and attempts to live incognito in the English Lake District. The novel explores the fears of a haunted and hunted man and his gauche attempts at disguise. When success seems possible despite fate intervening during the Moorgate tube disaster and the dubious motives of those in the medical profession presumably there to help him, his own uncertainties and sexuality return to overwhelm him. Will the need to acknowledge his male offspring prevail?
BRIGHT DAFFODIL YELLOW JIGSAW Book 7 edition by Suzi Stembridge Literature Fiction eBooks
Bright Daffodil Yellow opens with aging former airline pilot Gerald Duncan posing as a Greek Cypriot innkeeper named Stephanos in the delightful romantic harbor town of Kyrenia of the early 1970s. Colonial Cyprus has long gone and the Turkish forces have not yet arrived while Gerald is lusting after a young English girl named Maeve. From the very start the reader knows Duncan is in trouble, pursued by relatives of former loves and indeed a marriage. As the Turks invade, Duncan flees the Island and in the turmoil adopts another identity in England. One feels like laughing at this hopeless creature as he earnestly seeks the freedom of obscurity only to survive an Underground railway disaster and be thrust into the exposing spotlight of national television. Duncan's great ambition is be a loving parent for the two sons he fathered by two different women -- and stay free. It's a wonderful but fascinating and taunting story, well written and seemingly reminiscent of Lawrence Durrell who also lived on Cyprus in another age, frequented Kyrenia (Bitter Lemons) and wrote of the loves and agonies of men and women in The Alexandria Quartet. The author's knowledge of Cyprus and the English Lake District is highly evident, plus she has the ability to portray characters with deep meaningful words. This along with the peculiar, unpredictable and pathetic exploits of a freedom seeker keeps one turning the pages to discover this Romeo's fate. Incidentally, his encounter with a Harley Street plastic surgeon is classic.Product details

BRIGHT DAFFODIL YELLOW JIGSAW Book 7 edition by Suzi Stembridge Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Although this is volume two of the trilogy, it can easily be read as an independent novel. I loved the description of the Cypriot settings, as a resident of Greece it is clear that Suzi's passion for these lands and its people are deeply felt. The plot is intricate and well researched, the characters explored in depth. Keep them coming!
Set in the 1970s,with an intricately woven plot, Suzi Stembridge's sparkling novel begins in Crete, but soon shifts to Wales and the Lake District of the UK. It's the story of the many identities of Gerald Duncan, a former British pilot, prisoner of war, and lover whose life intersects with multiple women. Will he manage to accept responsibility for his life, his loves, and his sons? Or will he be successful in finding freedom? From a deadly train crash to a dangerous walk in the Lake District, the story will captivate readers. Duncan's nemesis, Ainley, a richly drawn, despicable character, pursues Duncan relentlessly, tying together a host of memorable characters.
