Miracle in Carvoeiro Kindle Edition

by Roger Hardy (Author), Debi Alper (Editor) Format: Kindle Edition

Miracle in Carvoeiro is a light and humorous morality tale. It is an affectionate portrait of life in a holiday village in the Algarve and contrasts the ambitions and beliefs of locals and ex-pats.

Everyone has a past. In the case of Rui Fernandes it is a closed book and he is trying to write a new one. Carvoeiro is the kind of Portuguese fishing village where fishing no longer takes place. It has everything essential to village life; eighty-five restaurants, testosterone-fuelled police, illegal Brazilians, an ex-beauty queen who wants to open a sex shop. It also has a dusting of drugs, a crippled old lady and a village idiot who has been touched by God.

Against a backdrop of a pilgrimage over which the Church has lost control, the tapestry of this story interweaves different threads; sunshine and sangria, love and the oldest profession, illegal drugs and murder. Rising above this is the unanswered question: has there been a miracle?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Roger Hardy is an aviation man, pilot, designer and latterly, safety regulator. He was born into a Royal Air Force family just before our noble Monarch ascended the throne and has worked in the UK, the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany before finally settling in Portugal, Algarve. He is European by instinct and inclination. Besides, he hates the rain.

He has written five novels, all of mixed genres, all of which have been published for the Kindle. He runs his little guest house in Carvoeiro (www.casaluiz.com) and spends his spare time on ebook promotion, reading other people's books and, when he gets some good ideas, writing. He can get a bit tedious on the subject of the operas of Richard Strauss.
