What a wonderful book! I wish all Greeks and all Turks would read this novel, especially those not living on the island.
This novel succeeds in showing through the history of one family the tragic story of this beautiful "plaything of world politics" and the consequences of fanatic nationalism in both points of view.
Katerina is a strong heroine whose main trait is love. The thing she fights for is her family, a menagerie of very stubborn, very different people who are plotting, fighting, manipulating each other.

This was a strong fifth entry in the Devine Sagas series, it had that feel that I was looking for from the previous entries in this series. The characters were everything that I was looking for and was hooked from the start till the end. Laurie Devine wrote this well and am excited for more in this story.

This book was difficult to put down! I started it during the busy holiday season, so it took longer than anticipated with the limited time to read, but it was worth it! The characters were well developed, and very believable. The "history" behind the Greek/British/Cypriot population was explained well, and truly set the tone for the entire story. Looking forward to reading other works by this author! Highly recommend!
