Mike H. Mizrahi returns with The Weight of Loyalty, a poignant and suspenseful novel set during World War II on the occupied Greek island of Kefalonia. Released independently on May 25, 2025, the book explores themes of resilience, identity, forbidden love, and the moral complexity of war.
When British sailor Oliver Graham is shipwrecked and washes ashore on a hostile coast, he finds unexpected salvation in Natalía Giannatos, a fiercely loyal woman mourning the disappearance of her brother and fiancé. As Italy tightens its grip on the island, and an obsessed colonel circles ever closer, the two must risk everything to protect those they love—and confront their own buried truths.
Torn between duty and desire, Oliver and Natalía are drawn into the island’s resistance movement, navigating treachery and sacrifice as the war threatens to destroy everything in its path. In a time when survival comes at a steep cost, The Weight of Loyalty asks: how far would you go for love, for country, for truth?
“My long-term survival is doubtful under any scenario… But luck is finite—it always peters out.”
This sweeping story of heartbreak, heroism, and hope will resonate with fans of Kristin Hannah, Alan Furst, and Anthony Doerr.
