In the summer of 1837, Helena Cadfield returns to Oxford from a French boarding school, only to learn that her father has died while excavating ancient ruins on her mother's ancestral land in Nemea, Greece.Drawn by duty and curiosity, Helena sets aside her future with Allan, the dependable man she hoped to marry, and travels to Greece, a country still bearing the scars of its hard-won independence from the Ottoman Empire.In the sun-scorched hills of Nemea, Helena meets Aristotle, an archaeologist with a deep respect for the past. Together, they pursue the work her father left unfinished, unearthing long-buried relics that speak of gods, heroes, and civilizations long gone.As Helena becomes immersed in the landscape, its history, and her growing connection with Aristotle, she begins to question where she truly belongs.Will she return to the stability of England and the life she once planned, or remain in Greece to follow a future shaped by history, heart, and discovery?
