Summary:
On a wet summer morning in the historical township of Port Brandon,
South Eastern Australia, talented artist and psychic Beth Montgomery
reluctantly agrees to carry out a psychic assessment of Carrington House. She
soon becomes frightened by a string of nightmares that could be warning her not
to tamper with the metaphysical. Despite her fears, she braces herself for what
is to come and continues to unearth the secrets of the past.
As soon as she enters the historical home, the image of a distraught
Victorian maid appears, and then a young woman manifests on the staircase. Beth
is transported to another era, where a magnificent four-poster bed, an engraved
watch, and an exquisite ring evoke fleeting memories. When Beth spies a
calendar, the date fills her with dread, but she cannot remember why.
Returning to the present time, Beth agrees to work for the
irresistible Dr Matthew Jamieson, the new vet in the district. Each time they
meet, memories of another lifetime flood her heart. She senses an eternal bond
between them, but with two unfaithful partners in her past, she is reluctant to
become romantically involved with him.
As her passion for Matthew intensifies, she regresses to 1895. In
her past life as Mary Clark, she meets the darkly handsome Samuel Methven and
falls in love with him on sight. But is he as honourable as he seems? Faced
with Samuel’s apparent betrayal, Beth is plagued by fears that
Matthew will also be unfaithful to her. She knows that to learn the truth, she
must return to her past life, but that means facing an unbearable tragedy. Does
Beth have the courage to move between lifetimes and relive that dreadful event?
Will she be able to discover whether her soulmate was faithful to his twin
soul?
The Memory Healer –
Excerpt
She recognized Matthew Jamieson the moment he entered
the room. He was the man she had seen in the vision at Carrington House. He
must have said hello, for she heard the sound of his voice, but her body would
not respond to her brain. Chair legs grated against the wooden floor, and she
quivered when he sat beside her.
Beth lifted her chin, and their eyes met. The sound of
blood was loud in her ears. From somewhere in the room, there came the sound of
raucous laughter, and she dragged her eyes from his. She had no memory of
picking up her drink, but as she stared at the yellow liquid, memories began to
flood her heart. You may have touched me with other flesh, but the feeling
of your embrace is with me forever. You may have looked at me through other
eyes, but the soul to which they stood guardian is infinite and eternal. You
may have spoken with another voice, but my heart knows to whom it listens.
“Beth?”
She turned. His eyes were riveted on her face. “Are you
all right?”
Beth nodded, unable to speak.
Matthew frowned. “I had this feeling when I saw you
sitting here. I thought that you and I were . . .” He rubbed the
back of his head and frowned again.
“What?” Beth wet her lips and stared at him. “What did
you feel?”
He shrugged. “I’m not sure.”
Beth took a deep breath. What was happening? He started
to speak, but once again, her brain refused to listen. She had the terrible
feeling she would regress to another era against her will. Why was she having
trouble controlling her regressions? This had never happened to her before. She
heard Matthew continue to speak, but her head reeled too much to make sense of
the words.
Guest Post – Julie
Filarski – The Memory Healer
I have always
been attracted to the supernatural. When I was a young girl my mother told me
she was grief stricken when her father died. She was twenty-seven years old at
the time. That night he came to her to reassure her that all was well. She saw
him standing at the end of her bed and heard the words he spoke. I had the same
experience when my twin brother died almost three years ago. I knew I would see
him again and I did. That night, he came to confirm what we had always known.
We do not die. We leave our bodies when it is time to go and continue on our
journey. Death does not part us from our loved ones.
My youngest
sister has always been psychic. Once, when she was small, we had a puppy that
was killed on the road. We buried the little dog at the bottom of the garden.
As we were standing over the grave my sister saw the puppy’s ethereal body rise up and go towards heaven. Ever since then she
has known beforehand when it was time for family members or friends to leave
their bodies.
My daughter has
got psychic tendencies, too, and she gets ‘feelings’ about things before they happen. Things like this have occurred to
me over the years, as well. My daughter and I often find ourselves thinking
about the same thing at the same time. It makes us laugh when we both suddenly
blurt out the same words.
My knowledge of
the supernatural and the guidance we get from the spiritual realms - and we all
get continual guidance - has been strongly reinforced during my life. Anyone
aware of the spiritual path they are on will know the truth in the great
spiritual saying “When the student is ready the teacher will appear”. As I journey along my path in life, inspiration and information
comes to me exactly when I need it – a family member or friend might
say precisely what I need to hear, or my hand will be drawn to the very book I
need to read, or something else will happen that will bring me the knowledge
that I require at the time.
I was inspired
to write my book and received a great deal of metaphysical help during the
process. I feel privileged to know that the readers who need the reassurance of
the message in The Memory Healer will be drawn to the book.
About the Author:
Julie Filarski’s love of reading quickly progressed to a love of writing. While
writing The Memory Healer, she studied Professional Writing and Editing at
Chisholm Institute in Berwick, Australia. Much of the novel was written on the
train while she travelled to and from work at the University of Melbourne.
Julie first began studying the metaphysical realm in the early 1980’s. After a few sessions of Hatha yoga, she quickly became drawn to
yoga philosophy and the belief in reincarnation. Since that time, Julie studied
the topic in depth, as well as researching a wide range of other spiritual
topics. Her studies have led her to understand that mankind has an inherent
belief in immortality and that there is a deep and underlying spiritual purpose
to all life.
Julie lives with her husband, Murray, near Phillip Island in
Victoria, Australia. They have two children and five lovely grandchildren.
