A Catalonian police detective struggles to stop a serial killer targeting unsavory victims in this atmospheric crime thriller series debut.

A killer is targeting figures of corruption in the Catalan city of Girona, with each corpse posed in a way whose meaning no one can fathom.

Elisenda Domenech, the head of Girona's newly-formed Serious Crime Unit, believes the attacker is drawing on the city's legends to choose his targets, but soon finds her investigation is blocked at every turn.

Battling against the increasing sympathy towards the killer displayed by the press, the public and even some of the police, she finds herself forced to question her own values. But when the attacks start to include less-deserving victims, the pressure is suddenly on Elisenda to stop him. The question is: how?

Perfect for readers of Val McDermid and the Inspector Montalbano novels.
