It was a good extension to the first book ‘the island’. Leprosy was over by then. It basically zoomed in on manolis’ life and Maria’s after Anna died. It was interesting but I was left annoyed that Maria never found out whose dad Sofia's was. As always I wanted a huge drop or drama but left with the bare minimum. Manolis new love for Zoie wasn’t exactly mentioned in detail but didn’t really care.
