✦ Synopsis
En tenåringsprostituert blir funnet med brukket nakke i en leilighet i The Prosilo, en ny lekeplass for de rike. Til tross for omfattende sikkerhetstiltak i bygget, vet ingen hvem som har drept henne, og ledelsen har kontakter høyt oppe i regjeringen. Mordetterforsker Stephen Villani føler ikke at de samarbeider. Så blir tre menn funnet drept i en garasje, to av dem brutalt torturert. Villani møter et samfunn i oppløsning, og greier heller ikke selv å stille opp som far og ektemann. Peter Temple regnes som en av Australias ledende krimforfattere og fått en rekke priser for bøkene sine.
