The book begins in a maternity ward in New Jersey, where Amalia a young woman of Greek parentage, is awakening from anaesthetic after giving birth to a child that was stillborn - or so she is told. When she learns that her husband, a young German doctor, has dissapeared as well, she nearly loses her sanity. To regain her equilibrium she decides to return to Crete to live with her mother and grandparents in the village of Agia Pelayia.
The year is 1939, and Amalia’s quest for inner peace soon becomes a struggle for survival as Greece is engulfed in World War II. Amalia’s story becomes entwined with intelligence agents and the guerrilla "shadow warriors" - the Greeks, British and Anzacs who hid in mountain caves, descenting at night ro wreak havoc on the Nazis who occupied Crete for four years.
