I really like the paper mache rhino head I bought at a thrift store a few days ago. I told hubby that I wasn’t going to keep it. It was for resale only. Bla bla bla… It was an investment. That argument is becoming more and more worthless the more stuff I keep. Every time he sees something new in the house and asks about it, I just tell him I’m storing it there until it gets sold. I need help.

A dying man’s last words point toward a tantalizing treasure, a forbidden love, and the secrets of a shattered family’s past.

1941, the island of Zante, Greece. Pantelis Kokinis and his family live under the dark cloud of Italian occupation. As the horrors of the war draw nearer, reality for the Kokinis family grows more and more fraught.

In 1943, the German commander demands a list with all the Jewish residents of the island. The Mayor and the Christian bishop hand in a list with only two names: theirs. Overnight, the Jewish population goes into hiding as Christian Zantiots make a great sacrifice. Pantelis and Violeta come closer, and a medieval treasure suddenly vanishes.

80 years later, Pantelis’ grandson is looking for the treasure. What he unearths is a shipwreck, a manslaughter, and a truth he never expected.

The Island of the Righteous is a gripping novel by Greek author Stefanos Livos. It expertly weaves the past and present. With evocative depictions of a shattered family’s secrets and a love that never died, this poignant story is set against the backdrop of modern Greece’s rocky history.
