The Lady and the Psaltery

While watching a group of colorfully attired musicians playing medieval music on television, Sandra is fascinated with the handsome Psaltery player and the entrancing sounds of his harp-like instrument. In the days that follow she becomes obsessed with the musician. She eventually comes to feel they once had a common past...in a previous life. She then embarks upon an extraordinary quest to find him, with hypnotic past-life regression, relentlessly searching for a once shared medieval life, passion, and romantic love.

Marianne ou L'ombre galante

1752. Louis XV règne sur une France en pleine effervescence. Marianne, avec ses rondeurs de pêche et ses dents de nacre, est impatiente de vivre, de goûter à tous les fruits qui passent à la portée d'une beauté à peine éclose, quand elle est née dans la meilleure noblesse, et qu'on l'a mariée trop jeune à un brillant officier, vite reparti vers les champs de bataille… Elle se sent attirée par un aristocrate viveur et roué, mais sera aussi séduite par un jeune domestique, Thomas, le bâtard du vieux comte, qui a l'audace de l'emporter dans de folles chevauchées et des amours tumultueuses. À la suite d'une dispute qui finit tragiquement, Thomas doit s'enfuir au Canada, où il s'engage dans une vie d'aventurier et de coureur des bois, s'éprend d'une merveilleuse Indienne douée de pouvoirs occultes, sans que Marianne cesse de maintenir sur lui sa bienveillante protection, sous une forme inattendue… ni que d'inquiétants comploteurs se privent d'ourdir contre lui de sombres intrigues. Dans le milieu de l'aristocratie brillante - et peu morale - du siècle des Lumières, avec en toile de fond l'aventure de l'installation française au Canada, Marianne et Thomas vivront une époustouflante cascade de péripéties sentimentales et romanesques, au terme desquelles ils se retrouveront enfin, de manière fort imprévue, après avoir découvert bien des mystères, et la face cachée de bien des hommes.
