Mystery and Romance in Mykonos.
While leading a photography workshop on picturesque Mykonos, instructor Dana Fox is entranced by the brilliant light of the Greek island as well as by the dark beauty, Cybele Karabélias, a local policewoman. But her idyllic sojourn takes an ominous turn when a series of gruesome murders rock the town. Heedless of the possible dangers surrounding her, Dana continues to document the isle in sunlit photographs, unaware of the killer edging closer, hungry for closure and the evidence she unknowingly possesses.
Excerpt
THE MAN WATCHED the tall blond woman replace the lens cap on her camera and walk toward Kastro Hill. Although he had tried to turn his head away, he was sure she had taken his photograph once, possibly twice—and for the second time that day. Cursing his inattentiveness, cursing her, he began to leave the café, intent on following her. As he did so, he was accosted by a restraining hand.
“You have not paid, sir,” the taverna owner told him.
“How much?” He pulled his arm away. He hated to be touched.
“I must go inside to get your waiter.”
The man gazed toward the azure-domed church at the edge of the port. He wiped the perspiration from his brow and sat down at the table, gritting his teeth in frustration. Nine endless minutes later, a folded rectangle of paper was slipped under his spoon. He counted out the requested number of drachmas, picked up his belongings, and vowed to find the photographer’s film and destroy it—the photographer, too, as a precaution or, perhaps, for his pleasure.
