Can one house hold a lifetime of secrets?

Corfu, 1930

The moment Thirza Caruthers sets foot on Corfu, memories flood back: the scent of jasmine, the green shutters of her family’s home — and her brother Billy’s tragic disappearance years before.

Returning to the Greek house, high above clear blue waters, Thirza tries to escape by immersing herself in painting — and a passionate affair.

But as webs of love, envy, and betrayal tighten around the family, buried secrets surface. Is it finally time to uncover the truth about Billy’s vanishing?

––––––––––––––––––––

The Greek House is absolutely sumptuous. Dinah Jefferies at her best. I devoured every page of this stunning novel with enormous pleasure. Santa Montefiore

‘I was totally absorbed by this page-turning tale of love, loss and heartbreak in a troubled period of Corfu’s history. The island is beautifully evoked, the characters gloriously alive and passionate.' Rachel Hore

'A powerful story … the women are strong and complex … this is Dinah Jefferies' best yet.' Gill Paul

About the Author

Dinah Jefferies began her career with The Separation, followed by the number 1 Sunday Times and Richard and Judy bestseller The Tea-Planter's Wife. Born in Malaysia, she moved to England at the age of nine. When she began writing novels, deeply influenced by her Eastern childhood, she was able to return there on annual research trips for each new novel. With her most recent bestseller, her seventh novel The Tuscan Contessa, she has moved to writing about a European setting for the first time and continues that in this new series. She is published in 28 languages and over 30 countries and has twice been a Richard and Judy bookclub pick.
