The Greek Gardener

By Gordon Kay

A novel on a par with Harold Robbins` "The Adventurers", with drama, adventure and romance, in a Rags to Riches story that spans a century, and follows one man`s struggle to fight his way from poverty to power while remaining true to his roots.

From the isolation and poverty of a small Greek island, to the brutality of the Piraeus docks; From Prohibition-thirsty New York to the glamour and temptations of Hollywood; From the London Blitz to the Resistance fighting the Germans in the mountains of Greece.

This book tells the story of a man who fought for wealth and power only to realise its shallowness when he finally achieved both, having lost the woman he loved to vengeance, and the son she gave him to the wealth he inherited, and could not control.

This novel has everything to keep the reader interested – love, drama, action and adventure, glamour and tragedy - all interwoven in the fabric of a century of change.
