iepazīt sevi, justies kā daļa no draudzīgas kopienas, atrast laimi un pat mīlestību. Bet svarīgākais atradums ir īsta sieviešu draudzība.

Sievietes pilī:
Romāna darbība noris Otrā pasaules kara izpostītajā Vācijā, kur zem reiz greznās un dzīvīgās, bet nu panīkušās un izdemolētās fon Lingenfelu dzimtai piederošās pils jumta dzīve savedusi kopā trīs it kā līdzīgas, bet tajā pašā laikā tik dažādas sievietes — Mariannu, Benitu un Anju.
Marianna fon Lingenfela, kura reiz savam vīram Albrehtam un viņa izveidotās pret Hitleru vērstās pretošanās kustības biedriem apsolījusi atrast un pasargāt viņu sievas un bērnus neizdevušās nacisma sagrāves operācijas gadījumā, pat trūkumā un izmisumā spēj prasmīgi tikt galā ar visām dzīves problēmām. Taču, par spīti striktajai apņēmībai ar visu tikt galā pašai, ne vienmēr viss notiek tā, kā viņa iecerējusi. Katrai sievietei ir savi pagātnes noslēpumi, kuri nemitīgi ietekmē visādi citādi it kā pamazām ierastajās sliedēs iegājušo dzīvi.
Ar Otrā pasaules kara radītā posta un iznīcības spilgti atainotajām ainām romāns nemanot ievelk lasītāju tolaiku pasaulē, sniedzot vēsturisku un sadzīvisku ieskatu tajā, kā karš ietekmēja un mainīja cilvēku dzīvi. Lasītājam iespējams sekot līdzi varoņu dzīvei daudzu gadu desmitu garumā, iepazīstot nebeidzamos viņu likteņu mestos līkločus…

Two New York Times bestseller books - Greek Holidays + Women in the Castle. Greek Holidays:
Four old friends – Dora, Penny, Nella, and Moira – are together again and trying to relive their first carefree trip to a beautiful, untouched, romantic Greek island, seeking sun, sand, and sea. However, this is not only a reminiscence of youth but also a fulfillment of old dreams. They are all looking for something that would help them escape life's problems. On Kyria Island, they find an opportunity to discover themselves, feel part of a friendly community, find happiness, and even love. But the most important discovery is true female friendship.

Women in the Castle:
The novel takes place in war-torn Germany during World War II, where life under the roof of the once luxurious and lively but now dilapidated and demolished castle belonging to the von Lingenfels family has brought together three seemingly similar yet so different women — Marianne, Benita, and Anja.
Marianne von Lingenfel, who once promised her husband Albrecht and his fellow members of the anti-Hitler resistance movement to find and protect their wives and children in case of an unsuccessful Nazi overthrow operation, is able to skillfully handle all life's problems even in poverty and despair. However, despite the strict determination to handle everything herself, not everything always goes as she planned. Each woman has her own past secrets, which constantly affect the otherwise seemingly gradually settled life.
With vividly depicted scenes of the devastation and destruction caused by World War II, the novel subtly draws the reader into the world of that time, providing a historical and domestic insight into how the war affected and changed people's lives. The reader can follow the lives of the characters over many decades, discovering the endless twists and turns of their fates...
