Han er en urolig sjæl, og da han endelig sætter fod i det oprørske Dublin, er det med hævn i sinde.Leon Uris’ roman "I frihedens navn" er et monument over den irske frihedskamp. Det er historien om tre store familier, der var involveret i den, og om de mænd og kvinder, de elskede. En stor og betagende familiesaga."I frihedens navn" er en selvstændig fortsættelse af romanen "Trinity", der fortæller om den stigende modstand mod englænderne i Irland omkring århundredskiftet.Leon Uris (1924-2003) var en amerikansk forfatter, der skrev en lang række historiske romaner.

Bruce Du Benedict never imagined that the love of his life would be his African American co-star Emely Marchand... neither did his wife. The English actor had been married to Rebecca Hunter for a decade. They were the perfect aristocratic couple who had been practically bred for one another. Nothing and no one could ever come between them and their fairytale marriage, or so they thought. Emely blew through their lives like a hurricane in Louisiana. The strength of the attraction between her and Bruce was an unstoppable force that no one saw coming. Chaos, drama and passion abound when the English blue blood falls madly in love with the Creole starlet born into a legacy of seductresses. The two of them breaking social norms would result in consequences so great that no one in their lives will come out unbroken or unchanged. "This novel is incredibly addictive. I had a difficult of a time putting it down just as the characters in the story had a difficult time when they tried to walk away from each other." -Black Girls Love Romance "The love scenes in the book are intense. It's what I long to read whenever I pick up an erotica novel. They were so enthralling I read them all at least twice."-Black Erotica Review
