On my journey Around the World in 80 books, I chose My Brother Michael for my stop in Greece and it was certainly a worthwhile choice. Stewart clearly loves the country, people, and culture of Greece and her love comes through in every descriptive word.
Add to the wonderful scenery a likable heroine accidently tossed into a murder mystery, throw in a love story, and you have yourself a quaint little book set in the years following WWII.
