During the 2004 Athens Olympics, a missing girl leads PI Alex Mavros to a pagan ritual and a ring of powerful, devious men in this "absorbing" mystery (Publishers Weekly).
As the 2004 Olympics crowds the city of Athens, it seems a more sinister game is afoot. Half-Greek, half-Scots PI Alex Mavros has just been offered a very peculiar assignment. Angie Poulou wants him to find her missing fourteen-year-old daughter. The catch is that he must keep his investigation secret from her husband—one of the richest and most influential men in Greece. And Alex isn't the only one looking for Lia . . .
When a man's charred corpse is discovered in a remote farmhouse, and the headless body of another is found in the ancient stadium at Delphi, Mavros confronts the possibility that Lia's abduction may be connected to modern devotees of the Goddess Demeter—and that one of his deadliest foes may have returned to Greece.
