Description
A beachfront suburb once frequented by millionaire tycoons and movie stars, Varosha was abandoned after the Turkish army's invasion of Cyprus. Now, over two decades later, Petros, a young Greek Cypriot soldier, longs to return to Varosha to recover a keepsake that will help him win back his childhood love Joanna.
Petros' journey is fraught with danger as he must outmaneuver his cousin Elias and evade the Turkish military, one of the most ruthless armies in the world. With the likelihood of death hanging over him, Petros must decide whether to retreat or face his fears head-on.
