While growing up in the beautiful countryside of her island home, Taringa, Margaret enjoys her childhood with her parents and younger sister, Josephine. But when her mother, Viola, discovers a tragic secret from the past, her personality undergoes a swift and dramatic change. Suddenly, Margarets life becomes intolerable under her mothers dominion. Meeting her soul mate, Stanley, softens the blow for Margaret, and the love she feels for this man surpasses the ugliness between Margaret and her mother. Yet their relationship is not to be and sorrow permeates Margarets life once more. But time has a way of providing distance and clarity to the human heart, and Margaret realizes that reconciliation with her mother is not only possible, but needed. From childhood through adolescence and into adulthood, Margarets story reveals the deep, emotional attachment necessary to keep a family strong, the enduring peace of true love, and the hope we all carry within our soul.

In life, Egyptian jewellery was a colourful accessory to relatively plain clothing. It could denote rank or honours and it might offer amuletic protection. After death it was buried in the tombs of both rich and poor for the owner''s use in the Afterlife, along with other pieces made specially for the funeral.

Amulets were first made in Egypt as early as 4000 BC and became essential adornments for both the living and the dead. They were believed to endow the wearer, by magical means, with the properties they represent. An amuletic foot, for example, could be worn to ensure fleetness of foot; while the scarab beetle represented the new-born sun, and was the symbol of new life. Amulets in the image of powerful gods would be worn for protection; and malevolent creatures - like the male hippopotamus - would be worn to ward off the evil they represented.
