The Berlin Wall fell in 1990...

And the Iron Curtain in '91...

Yet the Green Line remains, cutting through the heart of Nicosia--the capital city of Cyprus--serving as a reminder of a frozen conflict. When Nora Johansson is invited to tend an artist's gallery in a Cypriot village, she embarks on an adventure to the Mediterranean, where she finds romance with a handsome, easygoing man, who shows her charms of sunny Cyprus, along with its turbulent history--a history that's still in the making, where citizens struggle for a national identity.

"The People In Between" is a fictional family saga with an unforgettable cast of characters. Through their voices, readers will discover a piece of history shaped by the conflicts in Cyprus during the 1960s and 70s.

The story is touching and tender and will transport the reader to a warm lovely place while at the same time provokes an awareness of how easily innocent people usually suffer as a result of failed diplomacy.
