“Memory freezes the dead in immortal perfection while the living remain to be faulted.” Love comes in many guises and for twenty year old Andrea it was the snaring of a dream. After marriage that snare became an obsession which destroyed reality until the players became blind to the truth. Now, a respected pillar of her upscale California community, mother of a college age son she's had little time for,and newly widowed wife of wealthy, successful Robert Greyson, Andrea boards a plane to England. In her suitcase is the box containing her late husband's ashes. She goes to fulfill his last wish; to spread them on his long ago fiancee's grave. When Andrea arrives at the cottage in the remote Yorkshire village where she is to stay she finds it occupied by squatters who take her captive. Through watching their lives from her upstairs window, and night-time escapes onto the surrounding moor, she finds a whole new world. Here she rediscovers the girl she once was and learns the truth about her captors and her marriage.

<p>Our news these days is full of wars in which genocide is being inflicted with inhuman savagery on innocent people. With each new headline the name of the previous atrocity fades into the shadows and its victims are forgotten in favor of the new ones. But every horror must be remembered and taught to following generations so that each country’s people remain aware and don’t let the evil ever happen again. Remember to Remember is set in Cambodia and is the fictionalized true story of Chanbopha, a courageous child who, despite her youth, survives the death march from Phnom Penh and through the Khmer Rouge killing fields. Using her own ingenuity she finds food for her family in the working prison farm in which many starve and few emerge whole. Through all the ugliness, Chanbopha sees glimpses of beauty, and this allows nothing to deter her from fighting for her dream of taking her mother and siblings to a life of freedom.</p>
