An Italian Island is an enthralling story based on four sets of circumstances that exist and are playing out in present day Italy. It is also full of irresistible Italian culture, romance, humour and valuable treasure: As well as the secrets of longevity and how to buy An Italian Home for one euro. After London born university student Sarah Stevenson returns from an enjoyable holiday in hot, sunny Crete, with Tony Hamilton, her Anglo-American student boyfriend, she seriously considers upping sticks and moving there. However, it is a further three years until they can afford another holiday and that happens after Sarah becomes a geography teacher in a middle school, and Tony qualifies as a neuroscientist; There second holiday together, this time to a beautiful but failing Italian island, is to change the course of both their young lives. And it begins when Sarah hears from the mayor that the island will be a 'ghost' island within ten years because its population is diminishing rapidly that she resigns from her teaching job to help save it. Despite a group of inhospitable locals on her back, who protest vigorously when she tells them she intends selling hundreds of abandoned properties to foreigners for the token price of one euro per dwelling, and importing migrant labour to do the restoration work, she eventually wins through.
