"Jeffrey Siger was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, practiced law at a major Wall Street law firm, and later established his own New York City law firm where he continued as one of its name partners until giving it all up to write full-time among the people, life, and politics of his beloved Mykonos. An Aegean April is the ninth novel in his internationally best-selling and award nominated Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis series, following up on Santorini Caesars, Devil in Delphi, Sons of Sparta, Mykonos After Midnight, Target- Tinos, Prey on Patmos, Assassins of Athens, and Murder in Mykonos. The New York Times described Jeffrey Siger's novels as ""thoughtful police procedurals set in picturesque but not untroubled Greek locales,"" and named him as Greece's thriller writer of record. The Greek Press called his work ""prophetic,"" Eurocrime described him as a ""very gifted American author...on a par with other American authors such as Joseph Wambaugh or Ed McBain,"" and the City of San Francisco awarded him its Certificate of Honor citing that his ""acclaimed books have not only explored modern Greek society and its ancient roots but have inspired political change in Greece."" He now lives in Greece."

A fast-paced international series. --Karen Keefe Booklist Siger's ninth atmospheric mystery (after Santorini Caesars) vividly depicts the political and economic issues involved in the European refugee crisis. VERDICT Fans of Adrian McKinty's Sean Duffy books and other police procedurals that handle violence and political issues with black humor will welcome this outstanding crime novel. (starred review)--Lesa Holstein Library Journal Siger has taken a political issue in Greece, mixed in a heavy dose of Greek Culture and served up a delicious tale straight from the headlines that is almost as much travelogue as it is crime fiction. --Caryn St Clair Reviewing the Evidence Vivid local color, agreeable central characters, and exciting action scenes make this a winner. --Publishers Weekly The ninth case for Siger's Greek detective (Santorini Caesars, 2016, etc.), brimming with suspense and a distinct sense of place, continues to deepen the back story of its band of heroes. --Kirkus Reviews The great man behind Greece's crime mysteries. --Greek City Times
