Whilst in Athens, he encounters the charismatic and maverick British landowner Edgar Brooke, whose vast estate dominates Pyroxenia, an island north of Attica.

Whilst staying there Godwin finds himself enchanted by the breathtaking landscape and captivated by Brooke's capricious young daughter Lydia.Suddenly, embroiled in a whirlwind of passion and chicanery, Godwin inadvertently finds himself at the centre of a dangerous political conspiracy. As events spiral out of control, Godwin does his best to play the diplomat in a terrifying international incident. His life hangs in the balance all the while his heart is being torn apart by the girl he has left behind in the spellbound forests of Pyroxenia...A haunting tale of love, adventure and intrigue, "A Dark Enchantment" marks the debut of an exciting new storyteller. |
