Description
A sweeping historical novel spanning decades in the lives of two families from different religions on the island of Cyprus. In a small village, set among the wild mountains and orange groves, two families share a deep friendship based on mutual respect and affection. As their lives unfold, an act of betrayal sets in motion a chain of events that tears the friends and families apart. Decades later, one man's painful memories are shared with his daughter, transporting her back to the island where passion and secrets simmered beneath the surface. A tale of desire, burning secrets, and forbidden love emerges, raising questions about forgiveness and the power of new generations to mend old wounds. Set against the vibrant backdrop of Cyprus, this moving novel explores the complexities of human relationships and the enduring impact of past events on those who come after.
