Using his writing talent he manages to capture those details that make a difference and proves that Kefalonia is a destination that everyone should visit, at least one time in their life!

The narrow roads of the island with breath taking views, Fiskardo, which is his favorite destination since his friends live there, the picturesque harbor, the boat rides and scuba diving, a day trip to Argostoli, a visit to the fishing village Assos with its Venetian castle, climbing up to the ruins of an old monastery in Sami, and a trip by boat to Ithaca, are some of the many things tourists can do and Ian Rankin recommends.
