About the Book:
Nestled below the skyline of Detroit
you’ll find Greektown, a few short blocks of colorful bliss, warm people and
Greek food. In spite of growing up immersed in the safety of her family and
their rich culture, Jill Zannos doesn’t fit in. A Detroit
homicide detective, she manages to keep one foot planted firmly in the
traditions started by her grandparents, while the other navigates the most
devastated neighborhoods in the city she can’t help but love. She is a no
nonsense workaholic with no girlfriends, an odd boyfriend who refuses to grow
up, and an uncanny intuition, inherited from her mystic grandmother, that acts
as her secret weapon to crime solving success. Her story winds around tales of
her family and their secret laden history, while she investigates the most
despicable murder of her career.
The Greeks of Beaubien Street is a modern tale of a family grounded in old world, sometimes archaic, tradition, as they seek acceptance in American society. They could be any nationality, but they are Greek.
