Overview
In wartime Corfu, two hearts defy the odds.
Corfu, 1943.
The Nazis are dragging Jews from their homes in the dead of night, and Rosa knows time is running out. Her father clings to the hope that they will be spared, even as whispers of deportation grow louder. When he demands Rosa end her relationship with Alvertos, a Greek Christian and the love of her life, she is forced to make an impossible choice.
Disowned and disgraced, Rosa faces an uncertain future—one that may mean she will never see her family again.
As the violence escalates, Rosa and Alvertos secretly marry, forging a bond that defies the hatred around them. But staying in Corfu means certain death. Forced to flee to the mountains, they face tragedy, impossible choices, and sacrifices that could tear them apart forever.
Edinburgh, 2002.
Rosa thought she could bury the past, but the scars of war never fade. When an invitation arrives for the unveiling of a memorial in Corfu, she is forced to confront the memories she has kept hidden for fifty years—the memories of love, sacrifice, and unimaginable loss.
Under a Broken Sky is an emotional tale of courage, love, and resilience in the face of unimaginable darkness. Perfect for fans of Kristin Hannah, Fiona Valpy, and Victoria Hislop.
