The Revolutionary's Daughter Tanya M Cooper

When Faith embarks on a journey to the tumultuous, yet breath-taking country of Colombia, South America, and is hired as an English tutor while researching her thesis, what she doesn't know is that the family in which she comes to live, is seeped in as much conflict and mystery as the country itself. What begins as a journey dedicated to research becomes an adventure deep into the heart of the vast Andes Mountains. Faith survives being kidnapped, changes her identity and fights amidst the strongest political guerilla band in Colombian history, only to face her biggest challenge: Writing her memoirs and revealing secrets about her own life - in hopes that her daughter will not make the same mistakes. In a country that offers little grace, The Revolutionary's Daughter is a story that spans three generations of women, whose lives become inextricably linked and yet each woman is alone in her struggle to find her identity and place, amidst a family and a land that are divided against themselves. The sequel is Beneath the Stone Cold Floor (The Diary of a Spanish Nun)
