On the run from romantic disasters and a failed career, Peter Tunstable flees to Cyprus . the one place where escape is impossible! There he becomes ensnared in small-time crook Mister Costa's crazy scheme to defraud the EU of 50 million Euros, while also freeing thirty trafficked girls from the Russian mafia. As things go pear-shaped for Peter, he confronts a modern day 'Cult of Aphrodite', battling self-doubt, a knife-wielding maniac, two sex-crazed archaeologists and a roomful of ancient erotica to prove himself 'a man' and win the heart of the woman he . likes very much.
