Two eBooks, one great story!
Sometimes the only way to find yourself is to leave behind everything you've ever known...and become a stranger—an Xenos.
Abandoning a life filled with loss of family, love, and personal integrity, Doran Seeger is on his way to a political awakening in Amsterdam, an unexpected affair in the Swiss Alps, an encounter on a train platform in Italy and the discovery of a wadded up handbill that leads him to a new love in a land where people still embrace real civility: Greece.
In A Winter Garden we find Doran Seeger ten years later working as an underground art dealer in Prague. After an unexpected reunion with Gisela Van Zyl, the sister of his former lover, lost ten years ago on the Greek island of Corfu, Doran's journey resumes as he and Gisela return to the island where he and the Van Zyl sisters first met. Which sister will win his heart? Or is it something else entirely for which the perpetual traveler searches?
