In a sun-drenched Turkish village, paradise turns deadly.

When ruthless magnate Hector Langford is poisoned, the idyllic launch of his luxury hotel becomes a chilling crime scene. Everyone had a motive, and secrets run as deep as the village's ancient roots.

Enter Edith Pendergast, a sharp-witted british woman. She observes the suspects: the furious fiancée, the betrayed business partner, the ambitious associates, the quiet innkeeper, and the victim's own enigmatic daughter.

As false leads and planted clues abound, Edith must unravel a complex web of deceit, where a hidden, multi-million-dollar secret and a final, shocking piece of evidence reveal a truth more twisted than anyone could imagine.

Can Edith expose the killer before Sirince's ancient olive tree claims another secret?
