In the wake of World War II, a hasty marriage has become a clash of personalities for Cathy Kotsikas. Leon, her Greek husband, is charming, yet self-centered. In 1952, the death of his much-loved grandmother brings Nikos, Leon's son, to meet Cathy for the first time. Bereft and unhappy, Nikos is drawn to Cathy, and she to him. But neither sees the danger of the attraction until it is too late...

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From AudioFile
This is the tale of a doomed, probably damned romance between the English wife of Greek tycoon and her stepson, Nikos. Cathy is a likable middle-aged woman who enjoys life in coastal Sussex and has ambivalent feelings for her charming, selfish, and even ruthless husband. Her stepson is more sensitive and understanding, and before either party knows what has happened, the tragic love affair has begun. Phyllida Nash is an accomplished actress who applies her polished vocal talents to dramatizing this compelling story. She helps us understand Cathy and grasp how such a tangled situation could develop. This is a smoothly told, well-crafted story of interest to all except those who demand happy endings.
