All She Had Was Twelve Days… Viola Bardo has creativity in her blood and justice in her soul. She's a music teacher, single, happy, and on the hop as a seasoned exchange teacher. Aurora Days, is the story of Viola's exit from Sydney to Athens in a time-tense search for justice when a foreign ambassador appeals for the return of his six-year-old son. Is Viola's dual life as a schoolteacher and vigilante law agent questionable? Will she blow her cover and never teach again? She's tough but never cruel, she's an idealist with vulnerabilities that add to her charm. Her sweet tooth and poetic side are secret addictions until Sebastian enters her world with his heart-wrenching past and the endearing personality of a little brother. Viola Bardo is every student's and school principal's dream teacher, although she is never with them long enough in her gallop across countries – wherever the call of justice takes her. She is a friend you would invite to tea and one you could trust – but she is a loner caught between fate and her chosen worlds. Who is the unseen doyenne Viola so loyally serves? Enter the school hallways and secret staff meetings as the investigation deepens and darkens in a deadly twist on the periphery of a pulsating metropolis.
