Publisher's Summary

What Happens to the Fallen?

Nobody asks!

Nobody tells!

Perched on a mountain, in an abandoned monastery above the village of Ames Perdue (Lost Souls) in the French countryside, lives Peter. Peter was once called James, but that was long ago, in another life. He leads a solitary life high up in the fresh air, alone with his thoughts. His only companions are his animals and the occasional visitor, mostly women who climb to the top of the mountain for reasons unknown to him and spend time there before returning to the world below.

Peter hides a dark secret: He is a deserter from the army, hence his change in name and identity. He believes the world thinks him dead, and he is happy to leave it that way. When he visits the village below, he finds likeminded people of all nationalities and stations in life living in harmony. Everyone there has their own secrets, and it is considered impolite to ask about a person’s background. In Ames Purdue, everything is in abundance and people are happy. Peter, though lonely, is happy.

Then one day, his world is brought crashing down with the arrival of a young woman named Sarah.
