What's the book about?
Helen is supposed to be living “the dream” in Sydney, but is dissatisfied in her work and relationships. When she discovers old letters to her grandfather from a woman in Crete, she decides to take a sabbatical and go looking for answers to a family mystery. What happened to her grandfather when he was captured during World War 2 and did he really join the Cretan resistance as her family believe? If he was a hero, why doesn’t her mother like to talk about him and why are his Australian army records incomplete? Helen’s search leads her to some important discoveries about secrets and loyalty, and the impact of trauma within families.
