Description: The moment of reckoning has arrived. After 12 years at sea, it is time for Captain Mitsos Avgoustis to return to the island of his birth: home to his wife Flora, his children, a granddaughter he has never met, and Litsa, his lover from all those years ago; a modern day Penelope awaiting her Ulysses. It will take all of his courage and strength to face the squalls and storms on land after a lifetime at sea--and all the while, resisting the temptation to return to his ocean going vessel, for it is there that his demons lurk and there that his true home lies.
