Description
A beautifully crafted novel about family secrets and wartime betrayals, set against the backdrop of Crete's invasion in 1941. Sixty years later, Lois West invites her feisty Great Aunt Pen to a special celebration on the island, prompting her to return and confront the past. As they journey through the island, old friends and family come to greet them, drawing Lois and her son Alex into an epic pilgrimage that leads to a reunion with a long-lost friend. But what secrets will be revealed, and how will Penelope George's experiences in Crete during the war shape her life forever? A moving and compelling story about a lifetime's journey in search of truth, this novel is a testament to the power of family, friendship, and redemption.
