Aristotle Detective - first UK edition
by Margaret Doody
In the dawn of a September morning in 332 BC an eminent Athenian citizen is
discovered brutally and bizarrely murdered. Young Stephanos is filled with
terror at the sight, but a public proclamation some days later naming one of his
own relatives as the murderer fills him with even greater fear, for under
Athenian law, Stephanos will have to defend him in the courts. He seeks guidance
from his former tutor, and to his astonishment Aristotle agrees to help him. The
two partners unravel the mystery of the real murderer's identity, culminating in
a gripping trial scene at the end. Author's first fiction novel.
Book has blue boards with the title in gold on the spine. Clean inside and out,
