When The Tourists Leave: A True Story of Adventure and Adversity

A story with so many twists and turns, you won't believe it's based on a true story.



This book has it all. Romance. Mystery. Intrigue. Enterprise.



Designers Jonathan Riff and Megan Horney were building great careers when they dropped everything. Newly in love and freshly bewitched by Croatia, they quit their full-on LA lives in search of faraway adventure.



Thousands followed online as they packed up, grabbed their dog Sailor and made the break for the former Eastern Bloc nation.



Over five months in 2016, they completely transformed an old communist meeting house into one of Croatia's most beautiful boutique coastal hotels. Only to have it stolen away through a series of unbelievable events.



You'll laugh with them. Cry with them. Cheer for them. Get angry with those who wronged them. Most of all, you'll be inspired by their perseverance and a love story that endures the harshest adversity.



When The Tourists Leave is an all-too-true story of what happened to two people who did what so many others fear to do. Break free. Take a Chance. Chase a dream.



"A page turner. You won't want to put it down until you find out what happens."
