Death Ex Machina (An Athenian Mystery)

A theatrical murder sends classical Athens into an uproar

Athens, 459 BC: Itâ€™s the time of the Great Dionysia, the largest arts festival of the ancient world, held each year in honor of Dionysos, the god of wine. But thereâ€™s a problem: A ghost is haunting Athensâ€™s grand theater. Nicolaos and the priestess Diotima, his clever partner in sleuthing (and now in matrimony), are hired to exorcise the ghost, but secretly suspect that a human saboteur is operating behind the scenes.
Â
Then one of the actors is found hanged from the machine used to carry actors through the air when they play the part of gods. Itâ€™s quite a theatrical murder. As Nico and Diotima dig into the actorâ€™s past, they discover enough suspects to fill a theater. As the festival approaches and pressure mounts on all sides, can they hunt down the killer in time? Or will they simply have to hope for a deus ex machina?
