This book looks at some of the more inexplicable aspects of our lives, and seeks to uncover the truth behind the stories that have become popular currency in our sceptical culture. Its investigations encompass a vast number of unanswered questions that have tormented some of the most brilliant intellects in recent years. If you want to know the latest information about the death of Marilyn Monroe, the existence of Atlantis and the malign power of curses, you will find all the facts here, presented in an objective manner so that you can make up your own mind. Fated Destiny presents the truth and nothing but the truth. It does not seek to sensationalize- but then it doesn't need to. At times, the facts are sensational enough.
"The book delves into some fantastic events and comes up with some extraordinary conclusion."
In 1940, as Britain braced for war, a group of poor London girls were dispatched to a children's home in Ascot to escape the merciless Luftwaffe bombing. At Englemere Wood they came under the care of the formidable but kindly Matron Doris Bailey - the Angel of Englemere - who cherished each girl as her own. Through first-hand accounts from the surviving girls, their stories and anecdotes shed light on life at the time - from the emotional upheaval of evacuation to adventures on the royal grounds of their new home - and the work of a woman who helped save a generation.
