When the body of a boy from one of Greece's most prominent families turns
up in a dumpster in one of Athens' worst 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? Andreas'
politically incorrect search for answers takes him deep into the
sordid, criminal side of Athens nightlife and on to the glittering
world of Athens society where age-old frictions between old money and
new breed jealousy, murder, revenge, revolutionaries, and some very
dangerous truths.

When politically incorrect, hot-shot detective Andreas Kaldis is promoted out of Athens to serve as police chief for Mykonos, he’s certain his homicide days are over. Murders shouldn’t happen in tourist heaven, but soon he is staring at the remains of a young woman found ritually bound and buried on a pile of human bones inside a remote mountain church.
Teamed with the canny, nearly-retired local homicide chief, Andreas tries to find the killer before the media destroys the island’s fabled reputation with a barrage of world-wide attention.
Just when it seems things can’t get any worse, another young woman disappears. With the investigation now a rescue operation, Andreas plunges into ancient myths and forgotten places, racing against a killer intent on claiming a new victim who is herself determined to outstep him.
