- Synopsis
- A Russian gangster&’s death draws a Spanish police detective into danger in this &“exciting, morally complex series&” by the author of A Small Death in Lisbon (The Washington Post). As a sweltering Seville recovers from the shock of a terrorist attack, Inspector Jefe Javier Falcón is struggling to find the bombers. The death of a gangster in a spectacular car crash offers vital evidence implicating the Russian mafia in his investigation, but it pitches Falcón into the heart of a turf war over prostitution and drugs. Now the target of vicious hoods, he finds that those closest to him are also coming under intolerable pressure: his best friend, who&’s spying for the Spanish government, reveals that he is being blackmailed by Islamist extremists, and Falcón&’s own lover suffers a mother&’s worst nightmare. He might be able to bring the perpetrators of the bombing to justice, but there will be a devastating price to pay. &“Few writers—in any genre—can match Wilson&’s depth of character and plot or his evocation of place and of history.&” —The Boston Globe
