Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A collection of blistering, darkly humorous stories that upend the idyllic image of the Greek holiday island.
Seeking to escape the paralyzing effects of the Greek economic crisis, a group of Athenian friends move to an Aegean island in the hopes of starting over. Viewed with suspicion and disdain by the locals, they soon find themselves enmeshed in the same vicious cycle of money, power, and violence they thought they had left behind.
