One letter can change your whole life.
Cressida thought she knew her familyβs history, but when she finds a box of old love letters, it makes her question everything.
Cyprus, 1955.
Seventeen-year-old Ariadne is in love with young British National Serviceman, Stephen Allenby. But her family are deeply involved with an organization campaigning for a union with Greece, and do not approve.
And theyβre not the only ones.
Itβs only a matter of time before Stephen is sent back to England, leaving Ariadne pregnant and alone. Stephen does his best to move on with his life. He marries Laura and has a baby girl called Cressida, but itβs not long before the cracks start to show and his marriage falls apart ...
Cyprus, 1998.
Forty-three years later, Cressida goes to Cyprus to recover from the double trauma of her motherβs death and the desertion of her boyfriend. She wants to find out why her father disappeared from her life when she was six, and sheβs convinced the island holds the answers.
The chance discovery of a box of love letters written in Greek to her father leads Cressida on a quest for the truth. Who wrote those letters? And are they somehow linked to her fatherβs disappearance?
Her search for answers leads her on a heartbreaking journey of love, loss, and discovery.
