The Greek House1923 On a hot day in Corfu town as the scent of jasmine and mint fills the air, rumours and unrest swirl. A shock invasion throws the island into uproar and, amid the chaos, Dulcie Caruthers' nine year old son Billy disappears. Seven long years later, Billys elder sister Thirza returns to the island. Honeysuckle and wild roses tumble over Merchants, the house with green shutters and cool stone walls that has been the familys summer home for decades.
