Elsewhere, on an unnamed island, the children's parents' plea desperately to the Marine Commodore Yarisugi, who denies their claims and tells them their children are dead. The parents hope that Vergo, who is revealed to be a vice admiral, can help them. I really enjoyed this book. I found the juxtaposition between the two story lines very interesting and captivating. Isaac and Perla Nikorkiris, along with their daughter Rebekka, live a quiet life in the Jewish quarter of Corfu Town. However, for the past few years they have kept the existence of their two youngest daughters secret and not registered their births, keeping them hidden in an effort to keep them safe. Now they have a difficult choice to make. The Germans are making noises around town that the Jewish residents will soon be leaving the island and Isaac and Perla have a plan in place for the youngest girls to be taken to a safe place to be be kept hidden. A middle-aged childless couple, Agata and Georgiou, are willing to put themselves in danger to look after the girls and keep them safe until the war is over. In addition, this arc heavily showcases the true power that Busoshoku Haki users have against Logia users, which was demonstrated with Luffy vs Caesar, [17] Smoker vs Vergo/Doflamingo, [31] [36] and Tashigi/Zoro vs Monet. [33] [34]A gripping, heart-wrenching and compelling read about the shadows at the heart of the sun-drenched island of Corfu and survival against all odds. Fans of Victoria Hislop, The Nightingale and The Tattooist of Auschwitz will fall in love with Burning Island. For starters, World War II is in full swing and the parents of two very young girls in Corfu, Greece make a heart-wrenching decision. The Nazi occupation is in full swing and they know they are about to lose everything they know and love. So, the girls, Matilde and Anna, are hidden and managed to end up in the custody of Agata and Georgiu, family friends. Can Agata and her husband keep the children out of the hands of the Germans? If so, for how long? Told in two different time periods, this is a story that will leave you in tears, as humanity is exposed at its very worst, but also its very best’ Cayo Costa , ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ it was the towering island that held the eye. During the morning it turned into a shark’s fin, a hat, the wall of a forbidden city. When it could no longer play at illusion, it began to reveal details of itself: vertical ribs down its flanks like the baleen of a whale, a dark forest on the sloping heights above vertical cliffs. The arc of the sun found new fissures and shadows, the escarpments stood higher and pressed their claims on the sky. I had no idea Jewish people lived on Corfu during WW II, they were sent to Auschwitz and most never returned. Some people on the island would rather Amber didn't look into Corfu’s history, keep the past in the past, two of the local's are not as nice as they seem, who can she trust and can Amber uncover what happened two little Jewish girls?

Wikipedia:WikiProject The KLF/LibraryOfMu/292 Another issue I had was at the height of the season that James was so bothered with being inconvenienced with the birth of their baby, when it came down to it, there were no guests in their bed and breakfast at that time and Amber was left alone on the burning mountainside about to give birth! Wasn't his gripe being that it was at the height of the tourist season? And yet there were no tourists booked in! It didn't make sense that their bed and breakfast was completely empty at the end of July when it would normally be at its busiest.

This is true. Although both books are completely different, I guess I was expecting something just as breathtaking and as brilliant as the author's previous offering. Have to admit to shedding a few tears at the end and will be keeping an eye out for more of this author’s work, this book won’t disappoint and it highlights the journey of the Corfu jews and how they were treated by the Germans’ Goodreads Reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One Piece Manga and Anime — Vol. 99 Chapter 1001 (p. 5-6) and Episode 1016, Zoro cuts down Prometheus using Kin'emon's technique.

Usually I would prefer one time period over another when a book has a dual timeline running through it but here I found myself equally enjoying both parts. Ultimately, I was intrigued as to whether there would be a connection between the two stories and if so what would it be? Would there be lessons to be learnt from it? In the brief prologue we are introduced to Amber who lives on the island having escaped from the rat race that was London with her husband James. She is thinking over what has recently happened and now that she knows the truth she will never look at Corfu with that same innocence again. The echoes of the past sound all around her and she wishes to strive for the truth as she knows this sun soaked island where people come to seek both pleasure and relaxation has a powerful history which should not be forgotten.

One Piece Manga and Anime — Vol. 75 Chapter 752 (p. 16-17) and Episode 689, A young Law asks to join Doflamingo's pirate crew.The book takes place in two different periods, 1944 and 2006/7. Amber and James's story was given much more prominence in the book, and although I enjoyed hearing about how they ended up on Corfu, building up their business, it became a bit repetitive. The 1944 time period was much more absorbing and I wish this had featured more prominently. The plight of the Jews is sensitively written but Isaac, Perla and Rebekka's inhuman journey to Auschwitz was heartbreaking to read and quite a few tears were shed. Anna and Matilde's story was also totally engaging. I always knew that Suzanne Goldring would have difficulty topping the brilliance of her first book "My Name is Eva" and any others would just be a shadow of that one. BURNING ISLAND is her second and, whilst I did end up enjoying it, the story wasn't nearly as compelling as her previous offering. Meanwhile with the Straw Hats, Usopp has made mini masks for the switched members so they can tell apart who is who. Luffy talks with the tied up Brownbeard who states he loathes those that make up the " Worst Generation", which are comprised of Marshall D. Teach and the Eleven Supernovas. He reveals he lost his crew and his legs thanks to Basil Hawkins and wound up on Punk Hazard, claiming it was once an island full of greenery as well as a research facility for Vegapunk who developed weapons and drugs for the military. Some criminals were even brought to the island instead of prison for experimentation.
