Monika has a thirst for knowledge and satisfies this with her passion for reading and her interest in languages, finally attending University. She meets an attractive man and is delighted when he asks her to marry him, but married life does not turn out the way she had envisioned.
Eventually Monika decides she has to leave Rhodes and make a new life elsewhere. By chance she becomes an employee at Vasilis Iliopolakis’s hotel on Crete and is befriended by his wife, Cathy, enabling her to meet members of ‘the family’.
