Aphrodite's Child

Will a new life on a beautiful Greek island lead to the end of a seemingly perfect marriage?



Emily, a mother of two, dreamt of having a third child. When she joins her husband on Cyprus at the beginning of the nineties, she hopes that she can persuade Luke that three children will make their family complete. Little does she know that Luke has been lying to her about their future.

It takes her a while to adjust to her new life, but as she grows in confidence, she begins to love the island. She embraces new experiences, makes new friends and re-discovers herself. A chance encounter with a handsome, single man, however, thrusts her down a dangerous road and her life begins to spiral out of control. Her dreams of getting pregnant never fade but when she eventually finds out about Luke's deceit, their marriage seems doomed.

A tragedy within their friends' circle puts her own dilemma into perspective and makes her realise that she's lost all sense. Can she rescue her marriage or will her actions mean that her family will never be the same again?

This is a story of secrets and impossible choices. Set against the stunning backdrop of sun-soaked Cyprus, you too will fall in love with Aphrodite's island and be captivated by this gripping family drama. Aphrodite's Child is the first of the Aphrodite Trilogy.
