Description
The new novel from million-copy bestselling author Victoria Hislop.
In the summer of 1972, Famagusta in Cyprus is the most desirable resort
in the Mediterranean, a city bathed in the glow of good fortune. An
ambitious couple are about to open the island's most spectacular hotel,
where Greek and Turkish Cypriots work in harmony. Two neighbouring
families, the Georgious and the Özkans, are among many who moved to
Famagusta to escape the years of unrest and ethnic violence elsewhere on
the island. But beneath the city's façade of glamour and success,
tension is building.
When a Greek coup plunges the island into
chaos, Cyprus faces a disastrous conflict. Turkey invades to protect the
Turkish Cypriot minority, and Famagusta is shelled. Forty thousand
people seize their most precious possessions and flee from the advancing
soldiers. In the deserted city, just two families remain. This is their
story.
