Prey on Patmos

Description

Saint John wrote the Book of Revelation more than 1900 years ago on the eastern Aegean island of Patmos. Today, isolated from the rest of humanity, twenty monasteries protect the secrets of Byzantium amid a way of life unchanged for more than 1500 years. When a revered monk from a thousand-year-old monastery is murdered in Patmos' town square during Easter Week, Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis is called upon to find the killer before all hell breaks loose. Andreas' search for answers brings him face-to-face with a scandal haunting the world's oldest surviving monastic community. In this ancient and sacred refuge, he finds some very modern international intrigues that threaten to destroy the very heart of the Church. Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Jeffrey Siger practiced law on Wall Street before giving it all up to write full-time among the people, life, and politics of his beloved Mykonos. Prey on Patmos is third in his Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis series. www.jeffreysiger.com

Jeffrey Siger was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, practiced law at a major Wall Street law firm, and later established his own New York City law firm where he continued as one of its name partners until giving it all up to write full-time among the people, life, and politics of his beloved Mykonos. The Mykonos Mob is the tenth novel in his internationally best-selling and award nominated Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis series, following up on An Aegean April, Santorini Caesars, Devil in Delphi, Sons of Sparta, Mykonos After Midnight, Target: Tinos, Prey on Patmos, Assassins of Athens, and Murder in Mykonos. The New York Times described Jeffrey Siger's novels as "thoughtful police procedurals set in picturesque but not untroubled Greek locales," and named him as Greece's thriller writer of record. The Greek Press called his work "prophetic," Eurocrime described him as a "very gifted American author...on a par with other American authors such as Joseph Wambaugh or Ed McBain," and the City of San Francisco awarded him its Certificate of Honor citing that his "acclaimed books have not only explored modern Greek society and its ancient roots but have inspired political change in Greece." He now lives in Greece.
