The Return of Marie Joelle

THE RETURN OF MARIE-JOELLE unfolds amidst the picturesque setting of the Dordogne Valley in Southwest France. Caught in a violent thunderstorm while canoeing on this river, Marie Joelle at the age of seventeen tragically drowns. A few years later, her family and friends find themselves helplessly baffled by a mystery that shakes their core beliefs about life and death. The subsequent birth of Anais continues to mystify everyone as the little girl's behavior gives many compelling manifestations indicating the possibility that the soul of their beloved Marie-Joelle has been reincarnated in the body of the child Anais. The story built around a romance, carries an intriguing charm which may captivate a diversity of readers, regardless of their spiritual convictions, for this is not a treatise on any particular religious creed.
