Publisher's Synopsis
The third book in the Quartet GREEK LETTERS. It is set both in Cheshire, just prior to the First World War, the war years and the era between the wars and then in mainland Greece. The story begins with the birth of Helene, who is the great-great-grandchild of Samuel Carr and his third wife Eleni. Family life in the WW1 years is slightly disrupted by the arrival of Phil, a Greek teenager also descended from Samuel Carr. Meeting her distant cousin many years later Helene finds herself sharing adventures in the Pindus mountains of Northern Greece and the Peloponnese. There is an unexpected twist to the end of this story as WW2 begins. The story is a period piece with the childhood scenes garnered from primary sources left to the author by the author's mother.
