'With a true storyteller's instinct, Anne Edwards has fashioned an engrossing novel that sings. Brava!.' - ED McBAIN. '...This grand love affair, played out against an international background, makes for an exciting read. A real page turner.' - BARBARA TAYLOR BRADFROD. The extraordinary voice and charisma of La Divina, Athena Varos, fuel her rise to fame as one of this century's greatest opera divas, and her sensational private life makes her into the stuff of legend. Set against a series of richly evocative backdrops - from the Bronx of the 1930s to German-occupied Greece during the Second World War to the dazzling opera and monied society of Paris, Rome, Venice, New York, and Buenos Aires, this is also the story of Varos's riveting and stormy affair with ruthlessly ambitious, sexually charged Greek shipping tycoon Mano Zakarias.
