SHERLOCK HOLMES HAS A BRILLIANT MIND. ELIÁŠ SATTLER HAS A PERFECT SENSE OF SMELL... The golden twenties are reaching their peak, and the First Republic is thriving. Few suspect that an economic crisis is just around the corner, as people enjoy themselves in cinemas, cabarets, and cafes. The Barrandov terraces attract the Prague elite, especially the stars of the silver screen. The construction of a world-class studio is being planned, and cinema is facing a new challenge... The race to produce the first Czechoslovak sound film is in full swing - and when the production of one of them is delayed by problems, the author of the original work asks private investigator Eliáš Sattler for help. Soon, however, one of the key players dies. Was it suicide, or is there a murderer among the filmmakers? Sattler discovers that each of those involved had a reason to get rid of the deceased. And what about the strange scent that haunts Sattler's exceptionally sensitive nose? In the world of Lamač, Longen, and Slavínský, whispers about the filming of the groundbreaking Erotikón, starting Frič and Burian, Eliáš Sattler and his friend Adam Křížek must not let themselves be blinded by the glare of the spotlight - because danger lurks behind it.
