Kradljivac ljubavi

Pavao Pavličić

The collection Love Thief by Pavle Pavličić contains three crime stories: Love Thief, The Villa in Medulin, and Last Chance. The stories combine elements of crime, fantasy, and social criticism, characteristic of Pavličić's style.

In the title story, Love Thief, journalist Ivo Remetin, a well-known character from Pavličić's novels, investigates a mysterious death at Zagreb's rush hour. The victim was killed in an unusual way, and the investigation reveals a world of usury and emotional manipulation, where love and greed intertwine as motives for the crime.

Villa in Medulin tells the story of a murder in an idyllic summer resort. Remetin investigates a case in which a luxurious villa hides a dark secret connected to family heritage and greed. The plot reveals complex relationships between the characters, where love turns into a motive for the crime.

Last Chance follows Remetin in his investigation into the disappearance of a young woman. The case leads to a web of deception and false identities, with an emphasis on social pressures and personal ambitions. The story explores how despair and the search for a new beginning can lead to fatal consequences.

The collection stands out for its dynamic plot, unexpected twists, and Pavličić's skill in depicting social and psychological themes through the crime genre. Remetin, as an atypical investigator, brings a humorous and sharp view of Croatian reality.
