The Life and Times of Philomen....

Maureen Anne Stapleton

A pilgrimage leading to the discovery that sanctuary is not external, it is a conceptual birthright set deep in the soul - a buried treasure.


Philomena Carlisle, a wealthy executive, embarks on a pilgrimage to retrieve her soul from the one she believes is the devil incarnate - her boss, Dr. Austin J. Cardinal. She reaches out to her friend, Victoria Lace, a spiritual Guru residing on the other side of the ocean.
Victoria decrees a soul-saving mission to be in order and pays her friend a visit. However, when Austin and Victoria meet, they embark on a battle for possession of Philomena’s soul.
In search of spiritual healing, Philomena leaves her prestigious job and accompanying life style, and follows Victoria to The Sanctuary, her retreat on the other side of the ocean. Immersed in a world of modern day witchcraft, she excavates from her psyche the origins of the flawed expectations that have primed her for delusion.
Philomena falls in love with fellow seeker of healing, Leon Moreau. Victoria is opposed to the relationship and her rage at her perceived loss of power threatens to end not only the women’s friendship, but also Philomena’s quest to restore her faith in herself and humanity.
Philomena must dig deep if she is to excavate the treasure within - sanctum sanctorum.

Hi You have a good story and clearly, you are tenacious and deserve a medal for completing your book. I would just mention the use of cliches, ie: 'bat out of hell' 'an inch of his pathetic life' fish out of water, they are a curse to editors, try to replace them with your own bright sparkling new... view book

I have only read the prologue and I am exhausted and too terrified to go in the bath I have just run! I won't be able to sleep tonight so I will read on. Brilliant, just what the 'agent' ordered I imagine. If the rest of the story lives up to the promise, prepare yourself for success. Good ... view book
