Prospero's Daughters

the long version

An atmospheric tale of one woman's search for her family's past - When Anna Rasini sees a painting in the window of an art gallery, her curiosity is aroused, for her mother owns a similar work, bearing the initials N. K. Early enquiries suggest that both works are by a Greek artist, Nikos Kladis, a wartime friend of Anna's long-lost grandfather. The trail leads Anna to Corfu, but she does not expect the disconcerting presence of Pierre Bouchard, an arrogantly handsome Frenchman.
