Opis

AN AMERICAN WRITER TRAPPED IN A GREEK NATIONAL CRISIS ... A DECAYED BODY IN AN ATTIC ... NAZI LEGACY ... LOVE, IN ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST BEAUTIFUL LOCALES ... Recently-widowed historical novelist Nathan Radcliff is in Athens to research his book about Anatole Katsaros, a national hero responsible for saving Jewish lives during the Nazi occupation of Greece. When he stumbles across his long-forgotten remains in a dusty attic of the National Archives, Nathan also finds a dossier implicating the hero's son as a Nazi collaborator and the boss of an international crime syndicate known as the Alliance. But the Alliance hears about the discovery and vows to destroy the evidence. When Nathan is nearly killed, an alluring Greek Secret Service Agent spirits him away to an Aegean island where their powerful chemistries promise healing of the past. But their tranquility is soon shattered. Leaving murder in their wake, the Alliance stops at nothing to destroy Nathan and the dossier. In spite of involvement by the highest echelons of government, Nathan is betrayed by his protectors and his daughter is taken hostage. Now the timid writer must garner strength he never knew he had.
