Phroso

In Anthony Hope's 'Phroso', Lord Wheatley's quest for adventure takes him to Neopalia, a Turkish island in the Aegean Sea. But when he arrives with the intent of purchasing the island, he finds the locals unwilling to give up their home and insisting that he make Phroso, a young woman who happens to be the daughter of the previous island owner, the ruler of Neopalia. As Wheatley falls in love with her, a Turkish man named Mouraki Pasha kidnaps Phroso, leading to a series of battles and complications. To achieve his goals, Wheatley must fight for both Neopalia and the woman he loves.
