Inhaltsangabe

Robert Wilson is back with the follow-up to his sensational thriller, The Blind Man of Seville. Javier Falcón has been through therapy and is in the process of breaking free of the psychological damage sustained during his last major investigation. Called to the scene of a suspicious suicide in a wealthy neighborhood on the outskirts of Seville, he begins to investigate a case with no solid evidence when suddenly, in quick succession, two more suicides occur-one of them a fellow police officer in the sex crimes unit. Left to discover what made life so unbearable for these victims, Falcón's task is to find the connection among the suicides. Or were they, in fact, murdered?

"Wilson builds a many-layered portrait of survivors and perpetrators, each consumed by rage, guilt, or depression." -- The Boston Globe

In an exclusive suburb of Seville, Rafael Vega lies dead on the kitchen floor and his wife has been suffocated under her own pillow. It appears to be a suicide pact, but Inspector Jefe Javier Falcón has his doubts.

In the brutal summer heat Falcón starts to untangle the mystery of Rafael Vega when he receives threats from the Russian mafia who have begun operating in the city. Within days two further suicides follow - one of them a senior policeman - and a forest fire rages through the hills above Seville, obliterating all in its path. Falcón must now sweat out the truth, revealing that all these events are connected and that there is one more secret in the black heart of Vega's life.

Robert Wilson is the author of seven novels, including A Small Death in Lisbon, which won the Gold Dagger Award as Best Crime Novel of 1999 from Britain's Crime Writers Association. He divides his time between Portugal and Oxford, England.
