Anne Zouroudi’s tales of the Greek Detective are ‘Gripping and tense, with an atmosphere which holds you in thrall’, says Susan Hill. ‘Essentially gloriously sunny escapism, the perfect holiday read’ (Daily Telegraph).Readers of Andrea Camilleri, Donna Leon and Alexander McCall-Smith will love the dapper, enigmatic Greek detective Hermes Diaktoros, ‘half Poirot, half deus ex machina’ (Guardian). The body discovered in a remote cove on the Greek island of Liteos turns out to be an entrepreneur who was planning a new future for the island's fishermen. But though the fabulous golden-scaled fish Liteos was famed for have long since vanished, not everyone welcomed the dead man’s vision. As the islanders sizzle in the summer heat, Hermes Diaktoros enters a world of lively red herrings, where the ties of blood are strong and the truth is painstakingly obscured. Anne Zouroudi’s Greek mystery is full of ‘all the sparkle and light of the island landscapes in which she sets them . . . Lovely, delicious prose and plot – as tasty as one of those irresistible honey-soaked Greek confections’ (Alexander McCall Smith). Anne Zouroudi is a past winner of the Coventry Book Award and has been shortlisted for the ITV3 Crime Thriller Awards and the Desmond Elliott Prize.
