About the book
In Greece, among her mother's people, Rhea Langford believed she would become part of a happy family again. She knew nothing of the language and customs, but a keen desire and the present of Nicos Metaxis went a long way to fulfilling her dream. But was this to be destroyed by the very thing that had tied her to her Greek roots? The copy of an ancient necklet - given to her mother by her father - proved to be the missing original, and she feared Nicos would never trust her again.
