Italy, 1943. With tears in her eyes, Giulia listens out for the sound of bombers flying overhead and thinks of the baby growing inside of her. Through the fabric of her lace dress her fingers touch the cold bullets carefully sewn into the seams. Luca might never forgive her, but she has to do this... New York, present day. When Tori Coleman discovers that her mother was adopted, her whole world shatters. Jeremy, her boyfriend, wants to get married, but how can Tori commit when she doesn't know who she truly is? The only clue to the identity of her biological family is a mysterious postcard with a photograph of an ornate wedding dress her grandmother Giulia made, which she's told was gifted to a museum on an Italian island... Tori arrives on Ciani island, surrounded by turquoise Mediterranean waters, with the sweet smell of orange blossom filling the air. She soon finds the museum and learns that Giulia was Jewish, and secretly lived there during World War Two. She thought her grandmother abandoned her mother, but was she forced to leave and give up her child? Just as she's getting closer to answers, an unexpected call from Jeremy stops Tori in her tracks. As he passionately urges her to find out the truth, suddenly Tori wishes he were in Italy by her side, ready to propose again. But then Tori is shocked to find bullets sewn into the lining of one of Giulia's dresses and a notebook claiming she did something terrible during World War Two. Will the secrets in her family help her follow her own heart, or send her home from Italy with it finally broken forever? An enchanting, unforgettable novel about desperate decisions in the dark days of war and the uplifting power of true love. Perfect for fans of Lucinda Riley, Soraya Lane and Victoria Hislop.

An Italian Island is an enthralling story based on four sets of circumstances that exist and are playing out in present day Italy. It is also full of irresistible Italian culture, romance, humour and valuable treasure, as well as the secrets of longevity and how to buy An Italian Home for one euro. After London born university student Sarah Stevenson returns from an enjoyable holiday in hot, sunny Crete, with Tony Hamilton, her Anglo-American student boyfriend, she seriously considers upping sticks and moving there. However, it is a further three years until they can afford another holiday and that happens after Sarah becomes a geography teacher in a middle school, and Tony qualifies as a neuroscientist; There second holiday together, this time to a beautiful but failing Italian island, is to change the course of both their young lives. And it begins when Sarah hears from the mayor that the island will be a 'ghost' island within ten years because its population is diminishing rapidly that she resigns from her teaching job to help save it. Despite a group of inhospitable locals on her back, who protest vigorously when she tells them she intends selling hundreds of abandoned properties to foreigners for the token price of one euro per dwelling, and importing migrant labour to do the restoration work, she eventually wins through.

My darling girl, don't make the same mistakes as I did. Now that my life is coming to an end, take your grandmother's bracelet, unlock the secret of our family history, and discover who you are... As the hazy sun sets on golden sand, twenty-year-old Annie arrives on the stunning Sicilian island of Galatea, her father's final wish playing heavy on her heart: she must solve the mystery of her grandmother who disappeared during World War Two. Her only clues are the delicate gold band around her wrist and directions to Villa Onda - House of the Waves - where her grandmother once lived. As she climbs the winding road up to the cliffside villa, Annie's path collides with handsome local fisherman, Salvo. His sea-blue eyes sparkle with recognition at her bracelet, and Annie can't tell if it's his warm touch or the sun-kissed villa's vine-covered splendour that takes her breath away. Swept into the warm arms of Salvo's family, it's not long before she finds herself dancing the night away in the cobbled piazza and finally beginning to heal. But one afternoon she finds an antique gramophone hidden beneath a dusty sheet in her grandmother's bedroom. Setting the needle, she unlocks a long-buried secret... And, through Salvo's mother, starts to unravel the truth about the bracelet and her grandmother's heart-shattering wartime sacrifice. With Salvo's first kiss lingering on her lips, Annie knows she must dig deeper into the scars that haunt this beautiful island. But can her fragile new-found love with Salvo survive uncovering the truth? Will she ever be able to move on with her life until she does? An absolutely heart-wrenching page-turner about how the catastrophic consequences of war can echo through generations, and the power that true love has to save us all. From the author of million-copy bestseller, Watch Over Me, and Amazon Number 1. bestseller, The Italian Villa, this is the perfect one-sitting read for anyone who adores Fiona Valpy, Victoria Hislop, or The Letter by Kathryn Hughes.

From an award-winning BBC journalist, this moving book turns the testimony of an accidental hero into a timeless story about the awakening of human courage and conscience. 'I can hardly begin to describe to you what I saw as our boat approached the source of that terrible noise. I hardly want to. You won't understand because you weren't there. You can't understand. You see, I thought I'd heard seagulls screeching. Seagulls fighting over a lucky catch. Birds. Just birds.' Emma-Jane Kirby has reported extensively on the reality of mass migration today. In The Optician of Lampedusa she brings to life the moving testimony of an ordinary man whose late summer boat trip off a Sicilian island unexpectedly turns into a tragic rescue mission.
