      Greece is burning, and Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis is determined to save his country from disaster in this gripping mystery. Tasked with investigating a series of suspicious forest fires from the previous summer, Kaldis is initially concerned that he and his team are being set up to take the political blame for this year's blazes, as forest fires are a common occurrence in Greece. However, he soon suspects that the fires were deliberately set for profit, linked to a much larger scheme involving shadowy foreign powers. Rumors suggest that these entities aim to establish a covert mega-internet presence on the island of Syros, intending to weaponize the digital landscape for their own nefarious purposes. As Kaldis and his team delve deeper, they must confront the threat of a hostile takeover that could not only endanger the idyllic island but also ignite chaos on a global scale. With its stunning Greek settings, compelling characters, and fast-paced narrative, this international crime series is ideal for fans of celebrated authors like Donna Leon, Louise Penny, and Martin Walker. The stakes are high, and the race against time is on as Kaldis fights to protect his homeland from impending disaster.
