Description

The Good Deed is a novel about a woman who finds herself drawn into the lives of refugees on a Greek island. After saving a young girl from drowning, she becomes fixated on adopting her, but her obsession leads to unexpected consequences.

As the story unfolds, the novel explores the complex web of relationships and backstories that bind these women together. Hilma's actions have far-reaching repercussions, leading to a dramatic confrontation in a courtroom where the truth about motherhood is revealed.

This thought-provoking novel raises important questions about identity, belonging, and the human cost of war and displacement.
