A SINGLE MOTHER - A MISDIAGNOSIS - A PSYCHIATRIC WARD - CHILDREN IN CARE - A PSYCHIATRIST - A ROMANCE. Fate brought them together. Had her condition not been misdiagnosed, lonely psychiatrist, Luciano McKinnon, would never have net Kate and fallen in love with her when she was admitted to the hospital psychiatric unit where he worked as a consultant. He would not have become involved with her dysfunctional family and there would be no story, a story encompassing the plight of London's homeless, the delights of Paris and a beautiful Mediterranean island. 'Free as a Bird in a Healing Garden' is a heart-wrenching and memorable story about domestic upheaval, love, loss and family secrets. It is also about survival, new beginnings and courage.
