Synopsis

The body plunged from the brink of the precipice into the depths of the chasm, landing on the jagged rock at the edge of the river, a rushing torrent that would drown out the sounds of the impact or cries of anguish, if there were any. Now, only the gods of the Aegean, whether Greek or Roman, Christian or Moslem, would know what had happened.
