This book was a great thriller, but I need to stop trying to find books that remind me of The Secret History because then I set my expectations way too high. This book was an easy read with lots of Greek Mythology and mystery and intrigue. However, if I can finish a book in two days (one that makes scholarly promises), it won’t make a lasting impression.
