Set during the German occupation of Crete in World War II the story combines little known historical fact with fiction to create a compelling saga of a British nurse caught in hostile territory, living out the last dark and terrifying days of the occupation.
Creating a world that was both savage and unbearable though filled with bravery and ultimate human sacrifice, Fleming seamlessly combines the world of Penny George, past and present to bring us a compelling story which is richer for the telling.
