Description

What contributions can the Greek detective novel offer to the reader, which began in 1913 with 'Sherlock Holmes Saving Mr. Venizelos' (Anonymous), continued in 1928 with 'The Crime of Psychiko' (P. Nirvana), and firmly established its foundation in 1952 with 'The Beauty Pageants of Death' (Chr. Chairopoulos) and in 1953 with 'Crime in Kolonaki' (G. Mari);

Contemporary Greek authors from Aigaion publications will provide their own answer, having in recent years elevated the initial structure beyond the confines of social pathology, extending to political crimes and the competition of businesses or organized crime, while also attempting to conquer that fateful woman, who has been their most evident desire for years: literary quality.

In the third book of the series, Anna Darda - Iordanidou, after the first appearance of Kleio Sakka and Lillian Croft in the detective adventure 'Shampoo and Rimmel', describes their wandering in Vienna during the Christmas season.

Now retired, the two friends have embarked on a new career, this time as travel guide authors. However, their tram ride is interrupted by crimes and romantic dramas that connect present-day Vienna with that of the 19th century.

Intrigues, plots, scandals, and murders compose an underground path that not only leads them to the Viennese cafes they enjoy visiting but also immerses them in the dark side of both the imperial Vienna of the Habsburgs and the modern realm of bars and back streets.
