Author Anne Marie Allen paid a visit to our store yesterday to sign copies of her book Serve.

Anne Marie was fifteen when she was accepted onto a cookery school course that promised real qualifications and a future in the career of her dreams. Seeking a better life, she moved to the calm and peaceful countryside of the west of Ireland. Her happiness was short-lived as it became clear she had been tricked instead into a life of domestic servitude to the members of Opus Dei.

A remarkable story of strength and resilience in the face of religious zealotry.
