Satisfaction Guaranteed. FOR OVER HALF A CENTURY, THE ruined Temple of Apollo has been in the care of Gabrilis Kaloyeros, the old beekeeper on the beautiful Greek island of Arcadia. But when crooked developers take over the island and the value of the land soars, he is persuaded through unscrupulous means to sign away his interests. Hours later he meets a violent, lonely death. When detective Hermes Diaktoros finds his old friend's battered body by a dusty roadside, the police quickly make him the prime suspect. But with rapacious developers threatening Arcadia's most ancient sites, many stand to gain from Gabrilis' death. Hermes resolves to avenge his friend and find the true culprit, but his methods are, as ever, unorthodox.
