The original queen of the page-turner Mary Stewart leads her
readers on a journey of murder and deceit through the dusty roads
of mid-century Greece in this tale that fans of Agatha Christie and
Barbara Pym are sure to love. 'The contemporary thriller at its
very best' Guardian 'Mary Stewart is magic' New York Times 'Nothing
ever happens to me...' So begins Camilla Haven's letter home during
her quiet holiday in Athens. But when a stranger begs her to drive
a car to Delphi, swearing that it is a matter of life and death,
Camilla impulsively takes the opportunity she's been offered.
Before long she is caught up in a whirlwind of intrigue, deceit and
murder as she spins along the dusty Greek roads in a race against
time to solve a fourteen-year-old mystery. The longer I waited the
less possible it seemed to walk out of the cafe and leave
everything to settle itself without me, and the more insidiously
did the other possibility begin to present itself. Dry-mouthed, I
pushed it aside, but there it was, a challenge, a gift, a dare from
the gods . . . 'One of the best British storytellers of the 20th
century' Independent 'There are few to equal Mary Stewart' Daily
