Alexis has always resented her mother's reluctance to discuss her past. All she knows is that Sofia grew up in a small Cretan village before moving to London. On her first visit there, Alexis discovers Plaka is opposite the small, deserted island of Spinalonga. She's astonished to read that it used to be Greece's leper colony. When she meets an old friend of Sofia's, who agrees to tell the full story of Alexis's family, she finds out they were deeply connected with Spinalonga - and that the tragic secrets of the past can hold enormous power over the future . . .
