Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis Mysteries: Books 1-7
(2026)(A book in the Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis Mystery series)
A novel by Jeffrey Siger
Sun, sea . . . and murder.
‘Thoughtful police procedurals set in picturesque but not untroubled Greek locales.’ The New York Times
Detective Andreas Kaldis catches killers. It’s the one thing he was born to do which is why Athens’ thirty-four-year-old hotshot homicide detective has just been ‘promoted’ to police chief of Mykonos, chief dog-and-cat protector of Greece’s most glamorous holiday island.
‘A perfect setting and first-rate storytelling.’ Ragnar Jónasson, bestselling author of the Dark Iceland series
He wasn't sent to paradise to fight crime.
He was sent there to be forgotten.
Then a terrified workman opens a burial crypt in a remote hillside church. Island crypts hold the bones of the long dead. This one holds a body and someone has been keeping the church’s candles lit.
Somewhere in Greece, a diplomat’s daughter has gone quiet on her backpacking trip. The season is about to begin. Andreas’s exile is over.
Seven investigations carry him from Mykonos’s all-night glamour to the corridors of Athenian power, a monastery on Patmos, the pilgrim island of Tinos, the vendetta country of the Mani and the slopes of Delphi with Tassos Stamatos, the old bulldog homicide investigator of the Cyclades, and young Yianni Kouros at his side.
Seven gripping Greek-set crime thrillers in one outstanding box set.
Perfect for fans of Donna Leon, Michael Dibdin, Louise Penny and richly atmospheric Mediterranean crime.
