A Maxim Jakubowski selected title.
A chilling psychological mystery set in Lisbon that follows the dogged path of local Chief Inspector Henrique Monroe through striking crime scenes, political corruption and sexual violence to the point where his own secrets and family circle seriously come under threat. Zimler has proved himself in the past as a particularly erudite and literary practitioner and this is his most commercial book to date, evoking the sounds and smells of Portugal and its murky past with pinpoint accuracy, while the plot and its psychological insights keep the ball running all the way to a breathless conclusion.
Chief Inspector Henrique Monroe of the Lisbon Police Department is not your usual cop. Eccentric, elliptical - and stunningly observant - his peculiar behavior at crime scenes is legendary. But his colleagues put up with it because, in the end, Monroe's the best of the best.
