Could these crystal clear waters hide the secrets of her past?
Present day For years Shelly Summer has buried herself in her work,
trying to forget her past. The only time she feels truly herself is
when she's diving in the Mediterranean - the calm and stillness of
the clear waters help her forget. Back home, Shelly stumbles across
the belongings of her great-grandmother, Gertie Smith including a
recording of Gertie's memoirs. As Shelly listens to it, she starts
to uncover the secrets of Gertie's past, which might just hold the
key to letting go of her own. 1916 When trainee nurse Gertie Smith
signs up for the war effort, she is thrilled to learn that her
destination will be Greece. With a head full of blue skies and
handsome men, she boards the Titanic's sister ship, the ill-fated
hospital ship Britannic. Unprepared for the horrors of war, she
heads for the Greek island of Lemnos on a mission to rescue three
thousand wounded British soldiers. But tragically, the Britannic
never reaches its destination. When rescued, Gertie is taken to the
Greek island of Kea, where she meets and falls in love with a Greek
fisherman, Manno - but she finds herself torn between him and her
duty to an English soldier. Gertie cannot shake the guilt she feels
from that tragic night the ship sank and is afraid her past will
eventually catch up with her. Escape to paradise this Christmas
with an irresistible tale of love and loss.
