About the Book

Criminal investigator Katjuša Jakopič has narrowly escaped a premeditated murder. The perpetrator is still at large, and a new case is already waiting for her. A retired chemistry professor, known as a suspect in the #MeToo affair, is dead. It seems the killer can only be one of eight highly unusual neighbors. Together with her colleagues, Katjuša carefully uncovers their secrets, and it soon becomes clear that every single one of them has ample motive for murder. Then a new victim is found beneath the window of the professor’s apartment…

Maša Jelušič’s debut depicts a complex criminal plot that reads like cozy crime—a “domestic crime novel”—in which violent scenes remain offstage, the forensic traces are realistic, and the search for the perpetrator is intensely suspenseful.
