The tenth book in the Georgian series is an entertaining work of historical fiction. Like his brothers, William, Duke of Clarence, has had his share of romance and intrigue. And when he falls in love with Dorothy Jordan, the notorious Irish comic of the Drury Lane Theatre, gossipmongers are ecstatic, for William is not the only one with a shady past. Dorothy's notorious offstage life combined with William's less than decorous behaviour will make great copy for the scandal sheets, while their affair lasts. But everyone is surprised when the casual dalliance develops into a twenty year marriage in all but name. William’s penchant for living beyond his means ensures that Dorothy can never leave the theatre as her income is a necessity for the couple. This becomes a contentious issue as she wants nothing more than to be a full time mother. Eventually, William leaves the family and seeks to meet his obligations to the state. Meanwhile, Dorothy, abandoned by her lover and ignored by the many children she had fought so hard to raise, must live out the remainder of her days alone in France.

'Few story tellers can integrate Benig Mauger's rich understanding of psyche and spirit. This book will take you on a journey that will enrich you forever. I loved it.' Donna Eden, co-author, The Energies of Love In The Soul & the Sea, Benig Mauger interweaves depth psychology with spirituality to present a new model of healing. Inspired by the sea and land around her home, Mauger draws from her own life experiences as a Jungian therapist and spiritual teacher to illustrate how connection to nature and the spiritual world can heal emotional wounds. In a time of spiritual awakening, emotional healing must move beyond psychology to be effective. As both a guide and a creator of a new portal for healing, The Soul & the Sea reads like a story as it charts the journey to healing through nature and spirit while serving as a tool for emotional healing and soul growth, showing us how to connect to our inner healer.

Does God bring resurrection, or is God resurrection? Does Jesus bring life, or is Jesus life, in its rawest form? Jesus' death was never about sin management but about the whole created order being restored and redeemed. Jesus died 2,000 years ago, but still today he invites us to join him in this mass resurrection project which involves following him to our death so that we might be resurrected in him. The church was never intended to be a group of people meeting to worship, but a living community of people all dying to themselves so that Jesus would be alive in them, and that they would then bring life to others Practising Resurrection looks at how the resurrection of Christ is played out in the world everyday. It is an encouragement and a hope that there is a redeeming power at work in the world today.
