"Drawn to the sun-drenched island of Mithros by the myth of its fabled bull, Hermes Diaktoros arrives on the day of a violent and troubling death. The mysterious circumstances surrounding it have echoes in Mithros's past, in a brutal unsolved crime from years ago which, it seems, is neither forgotten, nor forgiven. Hermes sets out to solve a complex puzzle where shadowy secrets and unspoken loyalties are intertwined. And before long it's clear that the fate of the mythical bull may be the last of the island's mysteries."--Page 4 of cover.
