Everyone has a story to tell. If one takes the time to listen to another's story, great insights can be discovered and meaningful relationships developed. Jeremiah questions the validity of war, having experienced the effects of war-torn countries on his travels. The young Australian searches the world for peace, finding it briefly in a hilltop village where he meets an old wise woman named Svelte, who tells him her life story. His belief in Svelte and their mutual respect for one another leads him to recover her stolen heirloom jewellery. Jeremiah is a book about relationships and the impact those relationships can have. It is also about mutual respect, which can be found most anywhere, even in an isolated hilltop village. About the Author Somerset Bo grew up in Victoria, Australia, and now lives in Alice Springs. Jeremiah was inspired by an heirloom Indian silver child's anklet the author wears as a bracelet. "This was passed down to me through my mother's side of the family when the English occupied India. I have often wondered if this anklet could talk, what stories it would have to tell." The novel is also inspired by her children's generation and their world perspectives on living life with respect and gracious welcoming of all people. She is writing the sequel.
