Murder and mystery in ancient Athens . . .
330 BC: it is the night of the Silent Dinner, when Athens placates the spirits of the dead. Stephanos and his teacher, the philosopher Aristotle, are drawn into solving the perplexing abduction case of Anthia, the heiress of a prominent silver merchant who has been snatched from her home that evening. All that is known is that the abductor and the heiress are on the road to Delphi and its ancient oracle.
Stephanos and Aristotle go in pursuit but along the way there are many distractions: rumours of mysterious strangers, disguises and murder. It soon becomes clear that there is a psychopath on the road. But the mystery will remain unsolved until they reach Delphi. Will the oracle be able to identify the murderer?
