But when his spirited daughter, Athina, gets involved with young Makis, a distant cousin, trouble breaks out from East to West. Makis has a 'past' with the Taleban, and now the Eagle, an enforcer, is out to kill him. Then a freak air accident puts Senator Glinos in the frame for the Presidency. Suddenly the stakes are huge, and severe measures are called for: bombings, assassination and entrapment. The Senator's opponent has a weakness... for schoolgirls... As the love affair between Athina and Makis reaches its conclusion, Senator Glinos has one huge hurdle to cross. Can he do it? Can he win through? P A Lemos' exciting dynastic novel raises more issues than those of wealth, revenge and morality in public life. It asks the question, Who really holds the power in the world today? Who really pulls the strings?
