Two others are from local tales: the murder of a young migrant farm labourer and the discovery of a beautiful cave system that lies above a magnificent waterfall. The final two stories are pure fiction with the idea for 'The Bend in Time' developed during a drive through the Tunnel du Chat. The final story is about three likeable illegal immigrants from Senegal's Peanut Basin who are helped to make their way to our beautiful Savoie by a human trafficking organisation ably assisted by well-meaning humanitarian associations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pierre-Antoine S. de Vrai\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 2959028384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9782959028380\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Coeur de Rose Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/25\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 188\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.40d","brand":"Pierre-Antoine S. de Vrai","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48454012469503,"sku":"9782959028380","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cb9cb701-be81-4318-903c-7163c9bef12e.jpg?v=1777303641","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-bend-in-time-pierre-antoine-s-de-vrai-9782959028380","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
