A thrilling, dramatic and completely engaging tale of love, hope, intrigue and revenge on the island of Rhodes during the Nazi occupation. From the top-selling author of debut Island of Secrets

Rebecca Neumanner's marriage is on the brink of collapse, as her desire to be a mother becomes an obsession. Then she receives news from her estranged family in Rhodes.

Called back to the beautiful Greek island of her birth, she realises how little she knows of the grandmother she has eluded for over a decade. Bubba has never spoken of the Nazi occupation during her youth, but there have always been whispers. What desperate measures did she take that terrible day in 1944 when her family was ripped apart? Can the rumour she had blood on her own hands really be true? But Bubba intends to take her secrets to the grave.

However, as Rebecca arrives on Rhodes, bringing the promise of new life, this broken family must come together. The time has come to tell the truth about the darkest of days . . .

I have to say the title put me off for a long time because there are so many similar titles, but don’t make the same mistake. I was looking for a book in a hurry and just downloaded the first one from the plus catalogue but I have to say this book is wonderful, a complete surprise and the acting/narration is first class and I cried all through the final chapters. I will definitely be looking for more titles from both author and narrator.

A lovely surprise
