Detective Stories

Obratnica noći

Michael Gruber

Mladi detektiv Jimmy Paz dobit će nezahvalan zadatak da hitno riješi slučaj, samo što u ovom slučaju ništa, baš ništa, nije onako kao što se čini na prvi pogled.

Nekad davno, u nekom sasvim drugačijem svijetu, Jane Doe bila je doktorica antropoloških znanosti, priznata stručnjakinja za pitanja šamanizma i domorodačke afričke magije, nasljednica bogate loze Doeovih, ljubavnica legendarnog francuskog antropologa Marcela Vierchona, supruga zapanjujuće talentiranog spisatelja DeWitta Moora. Jednom, dakle, imala je sve. Danas Jane živi u iznajmljenom sobičku pod lažnim imenom, prerušena u neuglednu arhivisticu medicinskih kartona u Miamiju. Svim silama trudi se biti što manje zamjetljiva. Jane Doe iz prošlosti više ne postoji. Ako je sve izvela savršeno, svi vjeruju da je poginula u eksploziji očeve jahte. A ako je negdje pogriješila? Onda bi ritualna ubojstva mladih trudnica koja potresaju Miami mogla biti znak da joj je suprug na tragu.
