Mosaic
Carolann Copland

Once … in Andalusia, teenagers Enrico Sanchez and Sonia Almez made a vow of love everlasting. Then Sonia’s brother was murdered by Franco’s Nationalists, and Enrico, filled with a burning need for revenge, set out on a dangerous path.
Now… Sonia must flee Spain and struggle to build a life for herself in Ireland. Enrico is on the run, hunted by both Nationalists and Republicans.
They know that they should be together, but is their love worth doing something unthinkable?

Patricia O’Reilly –
Carolann Copland’s third novel ‘Mosaic’ is a glorious escape, a sweeping saga, set between the 1940s and the 2020s, located in Spain and Ireland. This is a pacy account of the love between Sonia and Enrico, hampered by time, place, cultural differences and the warring Nationalists and Republicans. Copland’s characters are strong and clearly drawn; her dialogue is crisp and to the point; and the plot has satisfying twists and turns with an emotionally satisfying ending.
