Summary
The new escapist novel from the author of Island of Secrets. Perfect for fans of Santa Montefiore and Lucinda Riley.
'I am Sofia. I am searching for my daughter, born 1st November 1972. Can you help me?'
On the beautiful beaches of Crete, an old woman is handing out scraps of paper. Sofia, eighty-five years old, unable to speak, is desperate to find a daughter she has never known. After a tragic childhood in Athens and a soaring career as a singer, the brutal treatment of the man she loved by a tyrannical regime forced her to give up her daughter mere days after her birth. Now she longs to be reunited with her child before it's too late.
Meanwhile in London, Zoe is searching too. In the months since the disappearance of her teenage daughter, Zoe's life has crumbled apart. Her husband has left her, her son feels forgotten, and every day is a struggle. But Zoe is desperate to track her daughter down, even if she doesn't want to be found....

Never judge a book by it’s cover!
I very nearly ignored this book as it looked like a summer read love story. How wrong was I. It’s gritty in places and difficult to come to terms with the UK involvement of the Unrest in Greece. Great family drama spanning four generations

Totally not what I was expecting.
Very good story well told and narrated. I was expecting a lighthearted romance. I was pleasantly surprised that it was not.

The best book I have listened to in a long time!
Give me a hotel and I'll write a review, give me a book, I really struggle! But I simply had to write a short review of this truly wonderful book. I adored it. It is so informative and beautifully written and I usually dislike those stories that go back and forth between years and characters but I loved this. I was rooting for all the characters and felt a connection with them all. I sadly finished it at 5am this morning with a huge lump in my throat. Very well done, I say!

This book had me gripped from the first page. Well written & beautifully read. Very sad in places but uplifting in others. I would recommend this book wholeheartedly.

brilliant
I loved this although at times it made harrowing listening and I was caught up in the pain and suffering as well as the joy. it made me interested to find out more about the atrocities in Greece. Is there a country in the world that has not suffered over war and desire for power?
Beautifully written and well worth listening to. The narration was excellent.
