PATRICIA WILSON Patricia Wilson is English, born on the Wirral, Cheshire. She retired to Greece over 25 years ago where she renovated a dilapidated village house whilst observing the Greek way of life and absorbing the culture. She learned Greek dancing and cookery, and enriched her love for poetry, photography, and painting. It was only a matter of time before she started writing. While living in this remote mountain village on the island of Crete, she dug up a rusted machine gun in her garden. After taking the weapon to the local kafenio, the locals told her the terrible history behind it. She had already started to write this sorry tale when, a couple of months later, the elderly village women came knocking on her door to tell their own, personal accounts of those heart-breaking events. After investigating further, she wrote ISLAND of SECRETS, a family saga based on real events that took place in her village in September 1943. In a matter of weeks, ISLAND of SECRETS sold six figures in Europe and was published in five languages. Edad: adultos
