Here's the set-up:
Nathan has spent seventeen long years in exile on a tiny Greek island, guarding a terrible secret - an act of love that has triggered devastating consequences. But now strange events compel him to return to civilisation to search out a long-lost love - and face a murderous foe. Events that spin out of control to reach a deadly climax in Soho, England, as treachery and self-deception are forced into the glaring sunlight.
And yet... this is only half the story. For into the narrative the author weaves a multitude of myths that we must live by in order to survive.
One Reviewer Notes:
A Time of Myths is a beautifully cross-cultural tale of men and women, English and American, and land both old and new. It’s haunting, so much more than I’d imagined as those first strange scenes unfolded, and it brings Woodstock, Crete, and the boardroom all to vividly plausible life: imho, a masterpiece!
