JOSEPH: The fourth book in a continuing sage of a Cretan family (Cretan Saga, Band 4) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A petty thief trades the confines of a Greek prison cell for the gilded cage of a ruthless crime boss—but his past, and a vengeful lover, are sailing fast toward his new life.

Fresh out of jail, Joseph, a narcissistic pickpocket, believes his debt is paid. He is quickly disabused of this notion when a favor from powerful businessman Dimitris ropes him into a lucrative, yet terrifying, new job on the sun-drenched island of Rhodes. Joseph must manage a warehouse, distributing “organic flour” and cartons of cigarettes – a thinly veiled front for Dimitris’s expansive drug smuggling operation across the Aegean Sea.

But every move Joseph makes is watched by Dimitris’s pale green, cat-like eyes. If he fails to follow instructions – or worse, if he is caught by the police – Dimitris will ensure Joseph is linked to a violent Athenian robbery he thought he’d escaped. Even more dangerous is Sorrell, Joseph’s former accomplice, who returns from deportation with a burning need for revenge, determined to find and destroy the man who betrayed her. Joseph is caught between the law, a crime syndicate, and a furious woman who knows all his secrets.

This gritty, suspenseful novel is perfect for fans of Mediterranean crime thrillers and dark organized crime stories. A tense, character-driven Organized Crime Thriller, this is Book 4 of the Cretan Saga.
