Assassins of Athens
Assassins of Athens: An Inspector Kaldis Mystery | Jeffrey Siger
1 post | 2 read | 1 to read
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.

Complicated,complex plot.Although set in modern day Greece, its story line involves the ancient practice of banishment, student revolutionaries, & corruption in high places.A mix of politics, culture, history, antiquities, & the contrast between the decadent, powerful,top eschalon of Greek society & the desperation & squalor of its lowest class, who does the dirty work for those in power. Superb Characterization, suspense,fast paced.
