#TheSilentSister 12 days to go - 'The smell of thyme filled the air, so different from the dry dust they’d left behind… She admired the pines, the mountains on one side, the teals and turquoise of the sea on the other, stretching out in front of creamy limestone cliffs.’ #Greece

The countdown begins! 🇬🇷 #TheSilentSister 🇬🇷 14 days to go - ‘The shaking and shuddering increased in intensity before there was an almighty deafening bang. A huge gaping crack tore from floor to ceiling down the opposite wall. Cassia screamed.’ #Kefalonia @JoffeBooks @ChocLituk

#TheSilentSister 8 days to go - 'Gleaming white vessels of every shape and size were moored along the harbour wall. The water stretching out in front of her glowed a deep aquamarine + was so clear she saw shoals of small fish wriggling around the hulls of the boats.’ @JoffeBooks

#TheSilentSister 10 days to go - 'On Cassia’s suggestion, she + Tom walked to a pretty cove hidden from view not far from the village... The turquoise water glowed in the sunlight. The creamy-white beach of fine shingle formed a half-moon shape, surrounded by rocks.' @ChocLituk
