Chief Inspector Andreas, Fiction, Crime & mystery

The first book in a new commercial crime series staring the sexy homicide detective Andreas Kaldis, with each book set in a different Greek city.

Mykonos has always had a romantic reputation, until the body of a blonde female tourist is discovered on a pile of bones under the floor of a remote mountain church. When the island s new police chief - the young, politically incorrect, former Athens homicide detective Andreas Kaldis - starts finding bodies, bones and suspects almost everywhere he looks, he s forced to admit that the island paradise is harbouring a ritualistic serial killer.

Mykonos s character is at stake, but political niceties no longer matter when another blonde vanishes. Andreas must delve into ancient myths and forgotten island hideaways as he races against a killer intent on claiming a new blonde victim - who is herself determined to out step him...

Praise for Murder In Mykonos: Number 1 in series

  • A very enjoyable and atmospheric book, which captures very vividly the Greek way of life - Eurocrime

  • Readers will be well pleased . . . - Stephanie Zvirin, Booklist online

  • Mr. Siger is one of those rare writers whose finger is always on the pulse of modern day upheavals.
