Resumen del Editor

The Sands of Time is the tale of four nuns who are abruptly forced to flee the secure environment of their Spanish convent and face a hostile world they long ago abandoned. Suddenly these four women find themselves pawns in a violent struggle between the outlawed Basque underground movement, led by the charismatic Jaime Miro, and the Spanish army, under the command of the vengeful Colonel Ramon Acoca, who is bent on destroying all of them.

Megan, the orphan, would give anything to learn the identity of her parents. She fights against her overpowering attractions for the legendary and idealistic Jaime Miro. Lucia, the fiery Sicilian beauty, is wanted by the police, but risks her future and fortune for a dying revolutionary. Even the serenity of the convent cannot erase Graciela's nightmares of the past. How can she again face a world of carnal love? It is Teresa whose confused conscience finally drives her to seek help from Colonel Ramon Acoca, a terrible mistake that will betray her friends.

The Sands of Time is an unforgettable adventure, told against the backdrop of the fascinating countryside of Spain. In combines history, romance and suspense with the unexpected.

Shame it was so fast

It's a good reading, and a real jem if you consider that it's the author of the book that is reading! But being abridged, you lose a lot of the book, that is very detailed and interesting. Even so, the abridging is good and, even if you are left with a few information missing, the overall idea is passed correctly.

Excellent audio

as always Sidney Sheldon keep me till the end ,even though is fiction you find some facts

Nun porn

I was under the impression this is part of a larger series about ufos. It is written with a nun sex scene every other scene. Like, even though I may have been misled about the premise of the book, it’s an objectively bad read. I’ve nothing against nun porn, but the entire book? WTF? Plus, the book is so short that it makes the few scenes it does have for the telling of the story completely diverted to telling nun porn.
Even if I wanted to get into the whole ‘nun porn’ aspect of the book, it’s written so poorly that it makes it difficult to even appreciate the one thing it’s written about.
Lame.

Waste of time

How did this author become famous. He’s awful. It’s just porn for women wrapped in a stupid story.

Waste of time

I wanted to read along with the book but they're not the same book. completely different. also, it only has 5 chapters.
