"Murder in Mykonos"

New from Poisoned Pen Press: Murder in Mykonos by Jeffrey Siger.

About the book, from the publisher:

When politically incorrect, hot-shot detective Andreas Kaldis is promoted out of Athens to serve as police chief for Mykonos, he's certain his homicide days are over. Murders shouldn't happen in tourist heaven, but soon he is staring at the remains of a young woman found ritually bound and buried on a pile of human bones inside a remote mountain church. Teamed with the canny, nearly-retired local homicide chief, Andreas tries to find the killer before the media destroys the island's fabled reputation with a barrage of world-wide attention. Just when it seems things can't get any worse, another young woman disappears. With the investigation now a rescue operation, Andreas plunges into ancient myths and forgotten places, racing against a killer intent on claiming a new victim who is herself determined to outstep him.
