Madeira through my eyes
I have lived on Madeira for four years and I am writing a book about it. Here is how the work goes: what worked, what didn't, and which places on the island make it into the chapters.

About the book
Five hundred years ago, the knights of the Order of Christ hid something on Madeira that no one was ever meant to find. In my book, someone finds it — and for the first time, a person has a chance not to leave forever. It is science fiction, but the places are real: you can find them on the map.
