A fabled diamond, a 113-year-old artist with a gift for secret codes, a bucket of cold porridge and two Agaton Saxes? Even for the famous sleuth of Byköping, this is proving to be an unusual summer! In a case that will take him from his sleepy hometown to the streets of London, via an unexpectedly upside-down helicopter, Agaton Sax will have his work cut out for him this time. And Aunt Matilda isn’t happy about it at all.

Two of Agaton Sax’s greatest foes have joined forces in search of a world-changing invention by one of his most loyal friends. That’s the sort of thing that can really spoil a weekend. Poisoned muffins, stolen cars, coat cupboards and mistaken identities...and one very important clock - it’s just another day for Sweden’s finest detective, Agaton Sax.

Frankly, Agaton Sax should know better than to go on vacation. At least, this time, he’s managed to enjoy some rest and relaxation without stumbling into a criminal conspiracy. On the way home, however, it’s a different story...from a slow train through Brosnia to a castle in Edinburgh and onwards to a motorboat speeding across the North Sea, Agaton Sax is up against a criminal mastermind who is almost - but not quite - as clever as he is. And there’s garlic. Far too much garlic.

There are not many cases, even in the files of Agaton Sax, that involve ancient art, devious dentistry, false Frenchmen and a temporary tooth. The story of the Colossus of Rhodes, however, is one of them! Join Agaton Sax, Inspector Lispington, the redoubtable Aunt Matilda and the faithful dachshund Tickie on an exciting Greek adventure.
