  St. Michael's Orphans

by Linda Pannell (self published)

Canada is in a state of political suffering and turmoil. Quebec has seceded, and the French Ambassador to Canada and the president of Quebec’s top aid have been taken as political hostages.  These events set the stage for St. Michael’s Orphans, a complex, intriguing novel about a military and political conflict that could threaten Canada’s very survival.

The setting for this book is the Ottawa Valley and the military within it's pages is the Canadian Airborne Regiment.

Each time I write a book, every time I face that yellow pad, the challenge is so great.

  I have written eleven books, but each time I think “Uh, oh, they’re going to find out now.

  I’ve run a game on everybody and they’re going to find me out.”   Maya Angelou
