The Greek House

Can one house hold a lifetime of secrets? 1923 On a hot day in Corfu town as the scent of jasmine and mint fills the air, rumours and unrest swirl. A shock invasion throws the island into uproar and, amid the chaos, Dulcie Caruthers' nine-year-old son Billy disappears. Seven long years later, Billys elder sister Thirza returns to the island. Honeysuckle and wild roses tumble over Merchants, the house with green shutters and cool stone walls that has been the familys summer home for decades. There, above the clear blue water of their private cove, she tries to forget the ghosts with a new lover. But she knows nothing of his past. As threads of love, envy, secrets and betrayal tighten around the family, can the vanishing of Billy Caruthers ever be recovered from?
