Legacy

by F. Bell

It’s 1902, James is about to turn eighteen and experience his first taste of freedom. He has been aboard The Mars, a floating reformatory for orphaned boys, since his parents’ violent death and mysterious disappearance of his little sister six years earlier.

He is not the average run-of-the-mill orphan, struggling to survive the daily perils of life, but the custodian of a millinery secret passed down generations. He knows, the legacy bequeathed to him will test his resolve to the bitter end, especially when the lives of so many are at stake.

The ancient enemies have hunted his family long before he was born, waiting patiently in the shadows for the right moment to strike and wreak their revenge. Will he cling to life against all odds and find the place where it all began three thousand years ago?

Legacy is suited to readers of historical fiction, or those who enjoy an exhilarating, well-paced adventure novel.

I am a second generation of Scottish Bells born in Chile that migrated back to Great Britain over thirty years ago.

My great-grandfather, James, was a Mars boy and his fascinating life has left behind a rich legacy of captivating stories and adventures worldwide.

The journey of research through five generations has inspired this novel which intends to bring back the essence of all those unique characters whose lives have been shaped by love and tragedy during challenging times for each generation of the Bell family.

In pages of Legacy I creates a story where real lives, fictional characters, history and folk myth blend seamlessly into a rainbow of thrilling adventure.
