Come my Beloved is set in India and is the story of an American multi-millionaire’s desire to establish a great theological school in India to train young men to become Christian missionaries. A love story which spans three generations, filled with Pearl’s vivid descriptions of Indian homes, rich and poor, landscapes, monsoons, warm-hearted Indian people, the Prince of Wales’ visit – will God and love win out?

The Townsman is the 1st of five novels set in America written under Pearl’s pen name of John Sedges to prove that she could win critical acclaim and not just be that woman author who only writes about China. Set in her publisher- husband’s native state of Kansas shortly after the Civil War, it’s the story of an English rebellious teenager and his family who immigrate and settle America’s wild west frontier.
March 16
Death in the Castle, written as John Sedges and Pearl’s only mystery novel returns to the “ancient English castle of a cash-strapped and unstable aristocratic couple, Sir Richard Sedgeley and Lady Mary who are broke and without an heir” or enough tourists to save their lifestyle. What is the remedy? Will rumors of ghosts or buried treasure revive tourism? Enjoy a suspenseful story which includes timid Mary, her possibly mad husband, Wells the Butler and his mysterious daughter Kate. Pearl will keep you guessing!
