The Island Retreat

Six people gather on a fabulous Greek island, each one hoping that ten days in the sun, writing their life stories, will magically fix their lives.

Rose Talisman is pinning it all on a fresh start.Five years after her career as a tv therapist ended in one catastrophic instant, she is opening a retreat in Corfu. The understated, luxurious Villa Artemis is surrounded by wild pines and sea views. Just six guests. One week. Time for Rose to help them face their secrets - and move forwards. But Rose has staked everything on the retreat. It has to work - or she loses it all. And people's secrets have a way of revealing themselves in ways no one expected. Nobody's past is staying hidden for long… Will that include Rose's, too?
