Story Behind The Book

Awakenings is the continuing story of two extraordinary women who initially meet during World War II - from opposite ends of the conflict. Together they worked for the Resistance and eventually fell in love. I wanted to take Eva and Zoe (my main characters) back to Larissa (Greece) and Berlin (Germany) and have them deal with their memories. Along the way they find out not everything is the way they remember it or the truth is what they think it is.
