The Orphan from Crete

Sonya grew up in Brisbane. But at 26 she decides to move her life to London. Within days of arriving, she meets a beautiful woman at a bar in Soho. They click instantly.

They fall in love, get married and build a life together in their adopted city. The only thing missing is… a baby. But after 5 years of trying, it doesn’t happen for them and they decide to call it a day.   

Not long after Tess and Sonya find themselves on holidays on the Greek island of Crete. And that’s when their life changes forever. Because that’s when they meet HER. She has black hair and her socks are white despite playing in the dust. Apparently she’s been living in the ruins of an old palace by herself. They can’t just leave her there… can they?
