About the Book

Expanded Distribution. Support your local community: order this book in your favorite bookstore!

Almost 700 pages of pure reading pleasure in one hefty tome. Each of these three novels has a beginning, a middle, and an end, so you have to start all over again each time. That can't be helped, but at least the main protagonists stay the same, and in this edition Daisy and Desiderata's adventures are published side by side, which is an added convenience.
We have Daisy Hayes, blind sleuth extraordinaire, born in 1922 and at the top of her game in 1964, when she encounters the name of Desiderata for the first time. And we have her doppelgänger in ancient Rome, born in AD 49 and struggling to reach out to someone, anyone, who will understand her, even if it should take two millennia to find that person.
Over the ages, their interaction is based entirely on scholarship, archaeology and detection. No magic nor tricks, only hard work, imagination, and love.

The Desiderata Stone. Daisy Hayes was a blind sculptress, invited to the Vatican Museums in 1964 to study archaeological artefacts by touch. In AD 64 a blind masseuse working at the baths in Rome overheard some important men plotting to set fire to the city and seize power. She decided to leave a message revealing the plot and did everything she could to save her hide. So, 1900 years later, Daisy uncovered a mysterious message from antiquity: the Desiderata stone.

The Desiderata Gold. In 1992 Daisy Hayes was living in Bottomleigh House, when she got a letter from an archaeologist about a mysterious message that had just been dug up in Rome. Time to ask Morag, her deaf friend from the 'project' in 1964 to accompany her to the Eternal City once more. So, 28 years later, Daisy went looking for a gold cache from antiquity, hoping to solve a new mystery, and even more to reconnect with Desiderata, her soulmate from ancient Rome.

The Desiderata Riddle. The quest for Desiderata, started in Rome in 1964, soon led to the German town of Trier, where Daisy Hayes and bishop Contini teamed up again in the fall to continue their research. In AD 67 Desi's friends the Christians went through yet another period of persecution, and the blind young woman found it hard to decide on whose side she wanted to be and what she intended to do with her life. Would she find love? Did she become a Christian?
