The Sands of Time (English, Paperback, Sidney Sheldon)

The story of four nuns who are suddenly thrown outside their safe convent environment. They are drawn into a violent struggle between the Basque separatist movement under the idealistic and charismatic Jaime Miro, and the Spanish Army under Colonel Ramon Acoca determined to crush them all.

Megan, the orphan girl, is willing to sacrifice anything to find out the identity of her parents. But he was powerless against Jaime Miro’s attraction.
Lucia, the beautiful bloody arrowhead, the daughter of a mafioso from Sicilia, is being targeted by the police for two murder cases. However, he is willing to sacrifice his wealth and future to save the life of a dying terrorist.
Even the silence and sanctity of the monastery could not erase Graciela’s past. Can he maintain his holiness in the vortex of this depraved and immoral world?
And Teresa, vacillating between the reality she faces and the past she wants to forget, in her confusion instead asks Colonel Ramon Acoca for help—a fatal mistake that injures her own comrades.
