Outback noir has a new star, Detective Sergeant George Manolis, who flies from Australia to Greece for a holiday. He agrees to work undercover to find an invisible man, who may never be located. Papathanasiou writes unsparingly, confidently, and compellingly, and the ghosts of the past haunt the events of today as Manolis' investigation leads him to uncover a dark and long-forgotten practice.

Detective Sergeant George Manolis, burnt out from his policework, embarks on a holiday from Australia to Greece. Recently divorced and mourning the loss of his father, who emigrated from the turbulent Prespes region, which straddles the borders of Greece, Albania, and North Macedonia, Manolis hopes to reconnect with his roots and heritage.

Upon his arrival in Greece, Manolis learns of the disappearance of an invisible man, a local who lives without any paperwork. The police and some locals believe that the man's disappearance was pre-planned, while others suspect foul play. Reluctantly, Manolis agrees to work undercover to find the invisible, navigating the complicated relationships of a tiny village where grudges run deep.

Papathanasiou writes with unsparing honesty, confidence, and compellingness. The Quietus states that it soon becomes clear to Manolis that he may never locate a man who, for all intents and purposes, doesn't exist. As Manolis's investigation unfolds, he uncovers a dark and long-forgotten practice, haunting the events of today with the ghosts of the past.

Detective Sergeant George Manolis is a brilliant new addition to the Australian crime scene. EMMA VISKIC, the award-winning author of the Caleb Zelic crime series, praises his debut novel as "a captivating and atmospheric crime thriller that will keep you hooked until the very last page."
