Náhradní řešení – McDermidová Val (2018)

At the wedding, love is in the air everywhere. Lonely people think more about wanting to be with someone. And a woman who hasn't had anyone for a long time or has just broken up with someone is more willing than ever to strike up a conversation with a pleasant unknown man, accept an invitation to dinner, and later even to a weekend. Why worry that she knows almost nothing about the charming widower? Maybe he is finally Mr. Right... Then, on a remote country road, a burning car appears, and inside is a strangled and burned young woman. The killer leaves almost no traces behind, so Chief Inspector Carol Jordan, head of the newly established regional serious crimes team, along with psychological profiler Tony Hill, almost prays for another meticulously planned murder that might reveal more about the perpetrator. In a few weeks, the scene repeats itself in another remote location. And after some time, it happens again. The perpetrator, convinced of his own genius, is still many steps ahead of the police – and for Carol, it’s all or nothing. If she fails, Tony, Paula, Stacey, Alvin, Kevin, and Karim, her enemies, will gladly take away the last thing she has left and destroy her. A desperate situation calls for a desperate solution.
