  • Broken Boughs, Shattered Vows

    Sandy Latka

    (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Dec. 6, 2017)
    Broken Boughs, Shattered Vows concludes the Twisted Tree Trilogy, picking up the family story in 1965 when Sandra and Mike and infant son, Martin, sail the Atlantic in search of a new life. Sandra’s attempt to escape the continuing conflict with Mattie proves to be futile. When Mattie and Alf, and later Belle and her family, all decide to follow Sandra, the saga continues. Polly, the inspiration for this series, comes to Canada with Erik, the man who came to her rescue from an abusive marriage so many years ago. Their love and support was always the glue that held the family together. They may not be able to change destiny, but Polly will remain the constant in this ever changing family dichotomy. Sandra has to reflect on her criticism of Mattie’s disregard for her marriage vows when she herself becomes involved in a passionate affair. The family tree is now firmly replanted and continues to grow new branches on Canadian soil.
