Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis must figure out the murder of a wealthy teenage boy in this Miami Vice-paced mystery set in contemporary Great Gatsby-like Athens.
When the body of a teenage boy from one of Greece's most prominent families turns up in a dumpster in one of Athens' sketchier neighborhoods, Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis of the Greek Police's Special Crimes Division is certain there's a message in the murder. But who sent it and why?
His search for answers takes him deep into the sordid, criminal side of Athens nightlife-as well as the glittering world of Athens high society, where age-old frictions between old and new money breed jealousy, revolutionaries, and some very dangerous truths.
Kaldis' journey, amid ruthless and powerful adversaries, will bring him face-to-face with old grudges, ancient Athenian practices, and political realities once thought unimaginable.
With its gorgeous Greek locations, engaging characters, and fast-paced plotting, this critically acclaimed international crime series is an excellent pick for fans of DONNA LEON, LOUISE PENNY, MARTIN WALKER, and DAVID HEWSON. Find out why The New York Times named Jeffrey Siger as Greece's thriller novelist of record today!
