Poljubac oštrice

Poljubac oštrice

Daniel Polansky

Among the remote streets and abandoned houses lying in the shadow of Rigus, the most beautiful city of the Kingdom, is the City of Shadows.

It is a city of powerful drug dealers, poor workers, orphans in ragged and dirty clothes, a cold and cruel aristocracy and dangerous agents who control every corner.

Warden is a former agent and soldier, a forgotten war hero and drug dealer who has seen the worst things imaginable in his life. However, when he finds the tortured and abused body of a missing girl in an alley, his life will suddenly change. He begins to follow the trail he discovered on her body and soon finds the culprit, who is punished for his sin. But not long after that, another little girl disappears...

With a mind as sharp as a blade and old but still influential friends in the city, the Warden begins his investigation of these crimes and in the process discovers that the culprit behind the murders is hidden in the city's secretive past, among the highest circles of the citizens, and even gets close to him... Sharp, a dark and wickedly bloody novel.
