    • Résumé :
      Transfer traces the lives of those on Anna's Fancy, the Clausen estate on Saint Croix in the Danish West Indies, handed down through three generations. An historical novel and the sequel to Fireburn (OC Publishing 2017), Transfer sees Niels Clausen, the illegitimate child of a Danish landowner and his black mistress who both died as a result of the 1878 worker revolt, leave his adoptive mother's sugar plantation and sail to England to continue his education. With the help of Toby, a British aristocrat, Ivy, a lady's maid turned lady and her botanist husband, Timothy, Niels challenges the perceptions on the streets of London of a black man at the turn of the 20th century. His development as a writer and political protagonist continues as he travels to Denmark and France where he meets up with childhood friends, Javier and Fabiana Gomez, before returning to Saint Croix. The Danish West Indies face an uncertain future as the declining sugar industry lessens Denmark's interest in their colonial outpost. Niels becomes increasingly involved in the future of the islands as war looms and concerns grow that Germany might covet a presence in the Caribbean. Will the islands' security be guaranteed by the transfer of power to America? The highs and lows of Niels' life are punctuated by the crossing of oceans and cultures as well as the political manoeuvrings of a turbulent time in Europe, the United States and the Caribbean.

      Sommaire:
      A transient life has seen Anglo-Australian Apple Gidley live in countries as diverse as Trinidad and Thailand, Nigeria and The Netherlands, and another eight in between. Her nomadic tendencies saw the first draft of Finding Serenissima take place on St. Croix, in the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the last in South Cambridgeshire, England, where she currently lives. Her roles have been varied-editor, intercultural trainer for multi-national corporations, British Honorary Consul to Equatorial Guinea, amongst others. Gidley began writing in 2010, and this, her sixth book, will be followed by a return to historical fiction with the publication of Annie's Day in November 2025. She has written for magazines, has short stories in anthologies, leads the Ickleton Jotters in their search for the perfect story, and writes an irregular blog, A Broad View. Research has started on her next historical novel, once again set amidst the turmoil of war. Visit applegidley.com....
