Description
When Simon Camish is asked to drive Rose Vassiliou home from a dinner party, he wouldn't have noticed her if she hadn't been in his car. Yet at one time, she was notorious - her name was constantly in the news.
Now, separated from her Greek husband and living alone with her three children, Rose refuses to leave her slum house in a decaying neighborhood, despite the efforts and sneers of her friends. As Simon gets to know her, he becomes aware that she is a woman of remarkable integrity and courage.
As their paths continue to cross, Simon realizes that Rose and her Greek ex-husband are forever bound to each other - a connection that is both complex and deeply ingrained.
