Circles on the Sand

1978. Serifos, a Greek island paradise.
Escaping their past, two young travellers fall in love.
Their days on the beach are idyllic – until Daniel’s girlfriend arrives from home and a handsome local eases Helen’s heartbreak.
Futures are devastated as reality presses upon them and the wheels of despair sink deeper into the sand. Hearts are broken… and broken again.

Is it possible to forgive? Can Daniel ever regain Helen’s trust and, growing older and stronger, will she finally escape an ocean of betrayals?

It's a novel for women and men. It's about attraction and constancy, the desire for freedom and the hurts that can cause.
Across forty years, Helen and Daniel mature and, like the island, adapt to new circumstances, dancing around fires of hope and disillusionment.
Yiannis, the romantic Greek, remains an apparent safe harbour but an ever-present shadow…
Their story moves to a stunning climax.
