The Ffryes Affair

Description

After working for ten years as airline cabin crew, Antonia is ready for a change. She seeks a new life on the beautiful island of Antigua. There she meets Peter, a British expat, and romance blossoms between them.

One day, on the beach after a storm, they discover a mysterious metal box that contains ownership papers for Ffryes Mills, once a sugar plantation. Ettie, an old lady living in a derelict windmill on the estate, claims that her family used to own the land, so it is now hers.

Antonia immerses herself in the project to prove Ettie’s ownership, but soon discovers that she is fighting an unscrupulous American property investor who is determined to grab the land for a hotel development.  

Meanwhile, Peter’s job in Antigua is not secure. He may have to leave the island to work elsewhere, leaving Antonia behind. Antonia is devastated that he is putting work ahead of her and their relationship, and the couple separate.

How will Antonia prove Ettie’s ownership of the land?

And what is her future with Peter?

Will love win the day?
