About

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? Kaldis' politically incorrect search for answers takes him deep into the sordid, criminal side of Athens and its nightlife and on to the glittering society world of Athens where age-old frictions between new money and old breed jealousy, murder, revenge, revolutionaries, and some very dangerous truths.

"[A] suspenseful trip through the rarely seen darker strata of complex, contemporary Greece."
Publishers Weekly
"Siger creates a heady mix of Greek politics and culture, drawing on the ancient practice of banishment, the country's student revolutionaries, and its notoriously corrupt officials…This is international police procedural writing at its best."
