Description
When Shelley Dark lands solo on the Greek island of Hydra for two weeks in the dead of winter, she’s not chasing sunny beaches. She’s hunting a pirate—her husband’s great-great-grandfather and Australia’s first Greek convict. Armed with an umbrella, a cashmere scarf, and zero Greek skills, Shelley is ready to conquer the archives. But Hydra has other ideas: fresh seafood, exhilarating hikes, cats, donkeys, and warm, eccentric locals. What starts as a frantic quest soon reveals that the real treasures are the ones you weren’t looking for. “Reading Hydra in Winter is like drinking a bottomless glass of champagne—bubbly, refreshing, and bound to make you laugh.” —Kyra Geddes, author of The Story Thief Funny, sparkling, and full of heart, Hydra in Winter is the ultimate travel memoir for solo adventurers, history buffs, and anyone daring to chase a dream. “Chrónos is the measured, ticking seconds of daily life; kairós represents those rare, significant moments that transcend ordinary time. Hydra is kairós.” —Shelley Dark —- ISBN: 9781763786714 | ISBN10: 1763786714 | ISBN-13: 978-1763786714
