Description
This Czech-language crime novel begins with a family whom the neighbours describe as happy. On Christmas Eve, however, the father murders his children in front of their mother, then kills the mother and finally himself. Finnish crime journalist Lauri Kivi begins writing an extensive article about family murders, leading him into his own past and devastating childhood, as well as into the life of his adolescent daughter. Kivi feels that these are not random killings, and he is entirely right, though in a far more shocking sense than he could ever have imagined. The story explores violence passed from one generation to the next, but also forgiveness.
