Can one house hold a lifetime of secrets? Corfu, 1930 The moment Thirza Caruthers sets foot on Corfu, memories flood back: the scent of jasmine, the green shutters of her family's home — and her brother Billy's tragic disappearance years before. Returning to the Greek house, high above clear blue waters, Thirza tries to escape by immersing herself in painting — and a passionate affair. But as webs of love, envy, and betrayal tighten around the family, buried secrets surface. Is it finally time to uncover the truth about Billy's vanishing? –––––––––––––––––––– 'The Greek House is absolutely sumptuous. Dinah Jefferies at her best. I devoured every page of this stunning novel with enormous pleasure' Santa Montefiore 'I was totally absorbed by this page-turning tale of love, loss and heartbreak in a troubled period of Corfu's history. The island is beautifully evoked, the characters gloriously alive and passionate' Rachel Hore 'A powerful story ... the women are strong and complex ... this is Dinah Jefferies' best yet' Gill Paul
