Smart-mouthed Jesse O'Hara and her friends find themselves in the midst of a Greek crisis involving a radical nationalist group, mysterious spies and lots of Greek food! The latest international thriller in the Jesse O'Hara series is a fun and fast-paced ride with a bold female protagonist. When Jesse O'Hara and her friends are invited to present at the International Conference on Law Enforcement and Investigation, she jumps at the chance. Sure, the dreaded small talk isn't her favorite, but the conference is in Greece, and she's more than willing to endure it for the chance to explore ancient ruins and mouthwatering cuisine.
But her plans take an unexpected turn when she's approached with a high-stakes job offer from the Greek government. They want her help to dismantle a radical nationalist group that's rapidly gaining public support. The offer? A considerable fee, and a mission that's as intriguing as it is dangerous.
Jesse knows the risks, but nothing can prepare her for the challenges ahead - or the toll it will take on her friends. As she digs deeper into the operation, it becomes clear there's a hidden player in the mix, one with a singular goal: eliminate Jesse O'Hara and her team for good.
Fans of Janet Evanovich, Ruth Ware, Darynda Jones and Catriona McPherson will enjoy this "whip-smart, sarcastic, amateur sleuth and a tightly plotted story" (Library Journal).
