Obratnica noći

Obratnica noći

Michael Gruber

Young detective Jimmy Paz will be given the thankless task of urgently solving the case, only in this case nothing, absolutely nothing, is as it seems at first glance.

Once upon a time, in a completely different world, Jane Doe was a doctor of anthropological sciences, a recognized expert on issues of shamanism and native African magic, the heiress of a rich Doe lineage, the lover of the legendary French anthropologist Marcel Vierchon, the wife of the astonishingly talented writer DeWitt Moore. Once, then, she had everything. Today, Jane lives in a rented little room under a false name, disguised as a disreputable medical records archivist in Miami. She tries her best to be as inconspicuous as possible. The Jane Doe of the past no longer exists. If she did everything perfectly, everyone believes that she died in the explosion of her father's yacht. And if she made a mistake somewhere? Then the ritual murders of young pregnant women rocking Miami could be a sign that her husband is on her trail.
