Corfu Sunset

Just retired John Waller and his Danish wife decide to renovate their near-derelict holiday home. They gain control from their neighbour who has pumped sewage on their land. In a frenetic summer they build a road up the mountain and a pool, veranda and a new roof for their villa. A party is held to celebrate a great Greek victory.

"Delightful episodes and characters emerge from the pages of Corfu Sunset. A highly amusing account of the highs and lows of property ownership abroad with attention to detail that puts most travel authors in the shade." - Tom Teodorczuk, Evening Standard

"Corfu Sunset is essential reading for anyone thinking of moving abroad to a place in the sun, revealing with panache and passion the rewards and drawbacks of buying property in a remote but warm outpost of southern Europe." - Nigel Lewis, Daily Mail
