Aprašymas

Murder in the Chapel (Love and Life on a Greek island) takes place on Kalini. Tourists and Greeks come to the picturesque island where white-washed houses sprawl on the hillsides and donkeys are the only means of transportation. Most of the year, yachts and fishing boats fill the busy harbor; water taxis and hydrofoils carry tourists and locals back and forth from the mainland. But it is winter now; tourists are scarce, most of the restaurants and cafes are closed, as are many of the island's houses and grand villas. Kalini belongs to Kalinins during these harsh spare months. And this is their story. Someone has murdered a well-known and admired localwoman, and Detective Aliki Notis comes from Athens to find the murderer. She encounters the power of tradition and religion among the islanders and uncovers their secrets - and sexual scandals. To trap an unlikely murderer, she must sacrifice a treasured friendship, outfox an old opponent and fend off the distractions of a new love affair.Murder in the Chgapel is a sequel to The Halcyon Murder which features both Detective Aliki Notis, a relative newcomeer to violent crimes, and the experienced hard-boiled Detective Stephanos Arditis. Aliki works alone in Murder in the Chapel, free from Arditis criticism and able to follow her own way.
