Title: Thank you , Amazon
Review: I read this book when it came out years ago, 20 years ago. I fell inlove with it. I loaned my copy to a friend and forgot about it. When I decided to re-read it, I couldn't find it and had forgotten who had borrowed it. Everytime I go into a used book store I would look for this book but with no luck. After a time I even forgot the name and author. A few week ago I began searching using different title combinations on Amazon and could not believe my good fortune to find it. I have ordered it and can't wait for the arrival. This book is wonderful. Yes, it has a romance but it goes far beyond. Its illusion of what seems to be an island paradise is interupted by WWII. The illusion begins to fall away when you discover the flawed but remarkable characters who live through hiding in the jungles to captivity in a Japanese civilian war camp and then begin searching for lost love. Beautifully written. What happened to Kay McGrath? I've never found another book by her?
