Knust over sin mors død længes Sophie efter at komme væk fra et rungende tomt hus fyldt med minder om en lykkelig barndom og et liv, der ikke helt er blevet, som hun havde forestillet sig.Så da en tilfældig opdagelse afslører noget om hendes mors fortid, som Sophie ikke kender til, er hun mere end klar til at hoppe ombord på et fly og flygte til den lille idylliske by Methoni for at finde ud af mere.Blandt de hyggelige tavernaer ved den stille bugt er Sophie fast besluttet på at afdække sin mors hemmelighed, men der dukker mere op, end hun nogensinde kunne have forudset. Hun får ikke blot svar på sine spørgsmål, hun får også en uventet mulighed for romantik og måske i sidste ende en chance for selv at finde lykken ...

Kristallinkirkkaita vesiä, reheviä mäntymetsiä ja sitruksen tuoksuista ilmaa. Kat perii talon Agistrin saarelta salaperäiseltä sedältä, jota ei ole koskaan tavannut. Talo tarjoaa Katille mahdollisuuden paeta perhettään, jonka suoma lohtu tuntuu tukahduttavalta Katin kaksosveljen kuoleman jälkeen. Voiko kesä Kreikassa parantaa Katin haavat ja löytääkö hän sieltä elämälleen uuden suunnan? Agistriin saapuessaan Kat lumoutuu. Valkoisiksi kalkittujen talojen ja vieraanvaraisen paikallisväestön keskellä hän alkaa tuntea sydämensä paranevan. Saari herättää Katissa rohkeuden kohdata menetyksensä - ja ehkä jopa odottamattoman rakkauden kipinän. Kun Kat kaivaa esiin perheensä haudatun menneisyyden, yllätyksiä on luvassa. Emma Cowellin Sitruunapuun alla on eskapistinen lukuelämys, Romaani aloittaa Sydän Kreikassa -sarjan ja on parasta lohtu- ja lomalukemista. Puoliksi Kreikassa asuva kirjailija tietää, miten tarinoilla, paikallisilla ruoilla ja maisemilla herkutellaan lukijan iloksi. ”Kaunis miljöökuvaus kuljettaa hetkessä aurinkoisempiin maisemiin.” - My Weekly Emma Cowellilta on julkaistu useita Kreikkaan sijoittuvia romaaneja. Hän asuu osittain Kreikassa ja osittain Cornwallissa miehensä Tonyn ja heidän lemmikkinsä, venäjänsinisen kissan Papoushka Gerald Cowellin kanssa. Entinen näyttelijä ja BBC:n juontaja Emma on työskennellyt myös varainhankinnassa lasten hyväksi ja kansallisen hyväntekeväisyysjärjestön Together for Short Livesin hyväntekeväisyysjohtajana.
