The perfect beach read for 2017!
Inspired by a true story, Watching the Wind Blow is a dramatic tale that takes place on a yacht in the Aegean Sea, immersing us in the events that change one woman's life forever as we sail under the Mediterranean Sun.
Married with a young baby and living with her mother in law, Irini has found herself a comfortable life after a traumatic childhood as an orphan. But Irini's husband Petta is unable to bear hearing the stories from her past, and so Irini carries her burdens alone, often haunted by her troubled upbringing.
On a day like any other, Irini leaves home to tend to her cleaning job on board a yacht. But little does she know this day will turn out to be unlike any day she could ever have imagined, and alarm sets in as she feels the boat set sail, discovering she is not on board alone.
Surrounded by endless blue sky and calm clear waters, Irini realises the tranquillity is an illusion as it dawns on her that a stranger has taken desperate measures, and her life is now at risk.
Who is on board with Irini? And what will it take to make it safely home to her husband and baby?
Finding she has more in common with the stranger than Irini could have anticipated, this thrilling novel reveals how the courage taken to confront a painful past has the potential to save her future.
