✦ Synopsis


Tres mujeres jóvenes han aparecido ultrajadas y asesinadas. El criminal se ha guardado como fúnebre recuerdo un objeto de cada una de ellas. Demasiadas coincidencias en tono a una forma de actuar que recuerda a los salvajes procedimientos y la impronta de un asesino en serie que conmocionó a la sociedad escocesa en los años sesenta: el escurridizo John Biblia, cuya verdadera identidad nunca se pudo averiguar. El inspector de policía John Rebus es el vivo reflejo de la frustración de aquellos que no pudieron atrapar a aquel depravado criminal. Ahora está decidido a enfrentarse con alguien que parece querer glorificar la memoria de su macabro predecesor. En el embarullado curso de la investigación el inspector Rebus topa con otra serie de muertes sin conexión aparente. Un trabajador de la industria del petróleo, un confidente del narcotráfico y un conocido mafioso mueren en extrañas circunstancias; unos sucesos a los que hay que añadir las extrañas implicaciones de personajes de los bajos fondos urbanos y de magnates de las altas esferas del poder económico. Inmerso en varios frentes abiertos, el carácter pendenciero, rebelde y transgresor del inspector le enfrenta además a una investigación interna dirigida por un superior vengativo. Cualquier paso en falso puede acabar con la carrera de Rebus, si bien antes habrá que poner punto final a una obsesión: dar caza a John Biblia.
