Detective Yiannis Kouros of Greece's Special Crimes Division is summoned by his uncle to come to the Mani - a region at the tip of the mountainous Peloponnese, peopled with families who live by their own code of honour, have a history of endless blood feuds and are rumoured to be descendants of ancient Sparta. Kouros' uncle once headed the Mani's most significant criminal enterprise, and he fears his loyalty to his boss, Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis, is about to be tested. But instead, Kouros learns the family is about to become rich through the sale of its property - until his uncle is killed, and so too the deal. Acting swiftly to head off a new cycle of violence, Kouros solves the murder - or so it seems. But back in Athens, Kaldis' probe into deeply entrenched government corruption leads straight back to the Mani.
