But as young men leap a blazing bonfire in feats of daring, one of them is badly burned. Did he fall, or was he pushed?

Determined to find out why, Hermes follows a bitter trail through the olive groves to reveal a motive for murder, and uncovers a dark deed brought to light by the sin of gluttony.
