Greek Letters, Volume One: Before

Along with courageous Greek patriots, Samuel, a naive young Philhellene from Cheshire stumbles on an angry Pasha at the battle-scene.

Chasing Samuel through the Mediterranean to this dangerous new state is the lovely and mysterious Susannah chaperoned by her loyal but ambitious servant. Through romance, tragedy and triumph, the good and evil of human nature is exposed and the lives of Susannah and four Greek orphans will have a lasting effect on Samuel and his descendants.

The historical account and spirit of place will satisfy history buffs and armchair travellers alike and the unfolding story in this novel is a must-read, as much for the present day Philhellene as for someone who has never travelled to Greece."
