Travel Guide
Brighton
Brighton is not the bright place it was in earlier books as this town is plagued by the second world war like so many others in Britain at the time.
The Pavilion still plays a strong role and the ghost is still in residence on the pier. But the mystery, like the fog starts to fade…
Corfu
Effrosyni says that she drew heavily from her experiences as a youngster to write this novel. She holidayed in her grandparents’ house in the seaside village of Moraitika, Corfu. The book is a work of fiction but it’s peppered with autobiographical elements.
