The county jail here was built in 1813, the year after Charles Dickens was born, and Dickensian is the word for it: crumbling brick walls, grimy cells and clanging steel gates, plus nice 19th-Century touches like brass handrails and hardwood floors.

But in a dank little cell, next to a man accused of killing his girlfriend's baby, paces the one-time boy wonder of Athens' financial district, a banker named George Koskotas.
