Description
What happens when the cook doesn't return from her regular visit to her old mother? Well, apart from the fact that Mr. Bella's family will have to make do with whatever the inexperienced cook can whip up? Even Bára had no idea what ancient and terrifying secrets would begin to surface when she sets out to find the cook with Lieutenant Prendergast, her acquaintance from India. Why has the former maid mysteriously disappeared as well? What lies behind the wooden trim of the long-abandoned house? And what role does the Indian fortune-teller Kálíbilí play in this detective story that even Agatha Christie wouldn't be ashamed of? It seems that the clues to uncovering the crime lead deep into the past...
