The Priest's Well - A Novella. Book 12 in the Greek Village Collection
Savvas fulfills his mother's dying wish and joins the priesthood. After a questionable start in America he is quietly appointed to a remote Greek farming village.
But the setting is far from the comfortable city life he had hoped for, and to make matters worse he finds that his predecessor has given over the main house to Nefeli, the youthful housekeeper, and her invalid mother, and that he must make do with the servant's quarters.
Nevertheless Savvas hopes to change his fortune and impress the bishop. He plans to regain the main house for the church, but there is something bewitching about the alluring Nefeli, and matters take a darker turn.
Praise for The Priest's Well
I love Sara Alexi's books, you just don't know what's going to happen next, this one is no different and kept me guessing and questioning all sorts of things as I read through.
Another superb novella and it differs vastly from what Sara has ever written before. The book itself can almost be described as dark and at times comic and tragic for the individual who is tempted and bewitched by Nefeli
I just love the way Sara Alexi gets under the skin of Greece and makes it real.
Well what can I say but wow, another great read, and without giving the story away to those who have not read it or still reading, Savvas really shot himself in the foot over Nefeli. Looking forward to the next great read. If you haven't already read any of Saras' books, then you are missing out big time
Although this was a shorter read than the other books I have read by sara Alexei, I was still drawn in by the characters . This book has a few twists and turns that leaves you wanting more. Can't wait for the next book.
Yet another superb Village Collection book. You won't be disappointed with this novella and the twist in the ending is very cleverly done. Thank you Sara !
