"A love story, and relationships of family and friends through a war. There's plenty of historical detail on the war between Greece and Turkey on the beautiful island of Cyprus.

I have done the walking tour in Northern Cyprus and it was fantastic to actually see some of these places.

I've read this book several times and it always makes me cry at the end."
