William and Francoise left Leicester and moved to her native France. She settled in the Languedoc easily, immersing herself in the local community and its politics. William struggled – with the language and the alien culture – and his outlet was the diary he kept on his laptop. It was deeply personal, occasionally critical of Francoise and not something which he should have let her read. But he did. When he went away for a week's holiday with their daughter Sophie he allowed Francoise to read all that he had written. It was the week in July 2005 which would bring bombs and terror to London and tragedy to the small town of Forac-Montjoie.
I'd like to thank the author for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
