From the author of Koraki, comes the first instalment of the Nectarios and Lidia trilogy, where we discover how Nicola's parents found themselves on boats headed for Australia, immigration forced by circumstance and far from romantic.1961: The mountainous lands and fierce people of Sicily and Crete have recovered from the ravages of World War 2, but the Petrakis and Liverani families face threats from different sources.Opportunism and corruption force a family to part ways with the fertile land they have held for generations.A teenage siren's call leads a young man to ancient ruins where the sun's warm embrace and sultry air make their illicit tryst inevitable, and threats of revenge hold a family to ransom.An overprotective brother who believes justice is best metered out on earth instead of heaven or hell; a moment of carelessness that leads to tragedy and a decision with lifelong consequences.Terra is the heroic journey of two families choosing between the land they know and the promise of a better, simpler life, oceans and memories away from home.
