"Siger is more than a master storyteller; he's a historian and diarist for modern Greece" NEW YORK JOURNAL OF BOOKS "International police procedural writing at its best" BOOKLIST STARRED REVIEW "Will appeal to fans of Donna Leon and Louise Penny" PUBLISHERS WEEKLY "International crime fans need to be reading this consistently strong series" BOOKLIST "Siger is a wonderful storyteller whose love of Greece is infectious" DEADLY PLEASURES MAGAZINE _______________________ The Greek nation's fragile fabric hangs in the balance and Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis is the only one who can save his country from chaos--but at what cost? Greece's government is in chaos. When a young demonstrator is assassinated by highly trained killers in the heart of protest-charged Athens, Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis of Greece's Special Crimes Division is convinced the killing was meant not to take out a target, but to send a message. A message from whom, though? To whom? And why? Kaldis' search for answers leads him and his team to the breathtakingly beautiful island of Santorini--and to eavesdrop on a hush-hush gathering of Greece's top military leaders, who are looking to come up with their own response to the overwhelming crisis their country faces. Is it a coup d'état, or something else? Greece is no stranger to violence upending duly elected governments, and the answer is by no means clear. As suspects emerge and international intrigues evolve, the threat of another, far more dramatic assassination grows ever more likely--as does the realization that only Kaldis can stop it. But at what price? 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.

Person
Jeffrey Siger is an American living on the Aegean Greek island of Mykonos. A former Wall Street lawyer, he gave up his career as a name partner in his own New York City law firm to write the international bestselling, award-recognized Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis series of mystery thrillers telling more than just a fast-paced story.
The New York Times described his novels as "thoughtful police procedurals set in picturesque but not untroubled Greek locales" and named him as Greece's thriller novelist of record. Athens Insider Magazine hails him as "a literary star," the Greek government selected him as the only American author writing novels serving as a guide to Greece, and Reader's Digest calls him "one of our new favorite authors." Jeffrey Siger has also served as Chair of the National Board of Bouchercon, America's largest mystery convention, and as Adjunct Professor of English at Washington & Jefferson College, teaching mystery writing.
