About the Book

The Winds of Change is a story of love, loyalty and betrayal on the eve of the Spanish Civil War, when the country is political turmoil with strikes and demonstrations, unemployment is high and the people are starving. In this complicated love triangle we meet Ramon, a member of the Republican Left, who has accidentally killed a policeman and is on the run from the Guardia Civil and Hugo, the son of the wealthy owner of a local sherry bodega. Both men are in love with Clementina, the beautiful daughter of a well-known gypsy horse trader but there are obstacles in both their paths. Hugo finds that when he tries to see Clementina again, both his parents and hers do everything they can to stop him. Meanwhile Ramon's brother, Pedro, is arrested and imprisoned because he will not reveal his brother's whereabouts to the Guardia Civil. Now Ramon has to choose between his brother and the woman he loves. This fast moving historical novel is a story of love, politics, class prejudice, intrigue and betrayal in the year leading up to the Spanish Civil War.

About the Author :
Joan Fallon was born in Scotland and grew up with a love for literature and a longing to write.

This research led to her writing two historical fiction series set in Medieval Spain and a number of other historical novels. Joan also writes contemporary fiction about families, relationships and the challenges women in particular have to face. Recently she has started to crime fiction. She lives in Málaga. (116 words)The Scottish novelist Joan Fallon, currently lives and works in the south of Spain.

Review :
"Ms Fallon has the talented ability to bring her fictional characters to life; you are there with them, discretely observing what they do and say - wishing you could join in with their conversations, and become an integrated part of this vigorous story." Helen Hollick author https: //helenhollick.net/ "Joan Fallon brings us a revealing portrayal of life in pre-civil war Spain. This is an evocative tale of the hardships endured by the very poorest and the injustices they suffered at the hands of those in positions of power and influence." Susan Carew author https: //susancarew.com/
