In her breakout novel, Meaghan Wilson Anastasios weaves an action-packed
tale of honour, passion, heroes and thieves across an epic backdrop of
history.
Istanbul, Turkey, 1955. Benedict Hitchens, once a world-renowned
archaeologist, is now a discredited - but still rather charming - shell
of his former self.
Once full of optimism and adventure, his determination to prove that
Achilles was an historical figure led him to his greatest love, Karina,
on the island of Crete and to his greatest downfall, following the
disappearance of an enigmatic stranger, Eris.
He has one last chance to restore his reputation, solve the mystery of
Eris and prove his Achilles theory. But it is full of risk and possibly
fatal consequences....
