Synopsis
Robert Wilson is back with the follow-up to his sensational thriller, The Blind Man of Seville. Javier Falc+n 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, Falc+n's task is to find the connection among the suicides. Or were they, in fact, murdered?
