Times Shall Reap
It is 1915, and Elspeth Gray is young, unmarried, heavily pregnant and destitute in a strange city. Having no one else to turn to, she throws herself on the mercy of a compassionate woman she once met briefly on a train. Helen Watson and her husband, themselves expecting a baby, gladly give the desperate girl a home. After Elspeth’s son is born, however, Helen tragically loses her own child, and in her traumatised state transposes the two births in her mind. With the neighbours also believing that little John is Helen’s baby, rather than the single girl’s, Elspeth gradually finds herself deprived of her own child. A second chance for happiness comes along for Elspeth through marriage to David, a soldier badly scarred by the war. But her children must survive the calamities of another war, and the tangle of secrets overshadowing her youth causes misunderstandings that eventually lead to disaster. Only when the full truth becomes clear can she and her family find happiness and freedom from guilt . . .

Tata Nano The People's Car
"The Tata nano, Indias first real peoples car, was unveiled in January 2008. But expectations among the people had started building ever since Ratan Tata first announced his intention to produce the car. An affordable car, a transition from two wheels to four, has long been a dream of the middle class. And when such a car was announced, and that too by Tata, anticipation rose sky high. Without knowing even the basic specs of the Nano, people up to place their orders. Today, when the car has finally won out against a lot of odds ( some of them deliberately created ), peoples expectations have risen correspondingly. While a Tata product, such as the Nano, is always taken on trust there have been a lot of questions among the public about the car, answers to which were difficult to find as they were spread over a wide area. This book brings together every fact about the Nano from its production problems, to its technical specifications, its cosmetic attractions, and its performance ratings. It goes on to list probable rival cars that have been announced or are on the anvil, how they are expected to compare with the Nano, world reactions and lots more. This book could well be subtitled Everything you Ever Wanted to know about the Tata Nano. The only thing not discussed in this book is the price Ratan Tata said rupees one hundred thousand ( one lakh ) at the very outset, it is still one hundred thousand and will still be one hundred thousand when it hits the roads. If there is one common perception the world over it is that Tata always keeps its word.
