Publisher's Synopsis
The enchanted island of Ceylon is where the protagonist starts her journey towards her new life and the fulfilment of her dream: to build an alluring hotel in Sri Lanka.
In the old colonial building, which she has just bought, she finds a notebook from 1943 bearing the name Nande Wijesinghe wedged under a window frame. The small notebook doesn't just contain information about the man's life, but a great deal more: secrets regarding the island, natural healing methods and fascinating, interwoven stories.
So begins the adventure, as the little hotel called Wirdana comes to life, in search of Sri Lankan history and culture and, above all, of Nande's mysterious, compelling past.
