Omschrijving

Two lives bound by love and sacrifice, across decades, across an island, across time itself.

Carissa thought she had escaped her past when she fled Edinburgh for the sunlit island of Skiathos. But her peace is shattered when her former partner finds her, determined to drag her back into his control.

Her only strength lies in the friendships she forges with Thomas, a WWII veteran who carries the burden of betrayal and loss, and with Demitris, who offers the love she desperately needs. As Thomas recounts his wartime mission, where danger, loyalty, and love collided, Carissa finds the courage to stand against the shadows threatening her own life.

A gripping dual-timeline novel of love and survival, The Island Between Us will appeal to readers of Kristin Hannah and Victoria Hislop. A standalone in The Hellenic Collection, it is perfect for fans of sweeping historical stories, emotional journeys, and the enduring power of love.

Praise for The Hellenic Collection:

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love books relating to World War II, enabling me to understand and learn about the struggles, sufferings and bravery of people during that time.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I have visited beautiful Skiathos, so the vivid descriptions took me back there - the smells, the sounds, the delicious food and stunning views. The author's affection for Greece, clearly shines through.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Island Between Us is another page turner from Dougie. He weaves storylines in a gripping but gentle way so the story takes a pleasing pace. He writes with deep understanding and insight into the human condition and emotions, and the characters feel so real to the reader.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was so upset when this book ended, that I found myself reading it again, and again. A combination of historical Greece during WWII and modern day angst...
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Dougie's description of Skiathos was perfect and I could just imagine myself sat with Tom listening to his time in the Second World War. It was so emotional.
