BOOK

Maria desperately wants to escape from the wretchedness of her life. But she proceeds to make a wrong choice, based on the wrong criterion. The dream she is seeking is elsewhere, and not in a marriage to Panos, the big-name doctor who offers her a comfortable life. Apostolis, the “inscrutable soul”, as Noelle had once described him, haunts her life with a passion which, like all passions, knows no limits. For him, she’s prepared to do whatever it takes. A murder, a divorce, exploitation, guilt, untold secrets, prison and a death, just before she is able to touch what her own inscrutable heart desires, will be the price she pays for a few fragments of happiness.
