Description
Investigator Filip has the job he always dreamed of, solving murders at Prague’s “first department”. Instead of fulfilment, however, he feels exhaustion, cynicism and a silence creeping into both his life and his relationship with Klára. When a human arm, severed with surgical precision, is found on the bank of the Vltava, Filip is given a case nobody else wants, one that could determine his future. Without operational support, under pressure from an ambitious superior and aware that there is nowhere left to retreat, he pieces together a brutal crime from the separate parts of a body. Each new discovery brings him closer to the truth while drawing him deeper into a world where the boundaries between professional instinct, obsession and personal failure are becoming dangerously blurred. This crime novel is also a raw account of police work without embellishment, the loss of ideals, relationships unable to withstand the pressure of reality and a man forced to discover whether he still knows why he does any of it.
