Description
Attempted murder in a Swiss cathedral . . . and the police pursuing justice against the odds
How does a victim get justice when there’s no obvious crime?
Swiss homicide detective Giuliana Linder of the Bern Police and her junior colleague Renzo Donatelli are facing cases that may not be what they appear. Renzo is near the Bern cathedral when a young man repairing a medieval window is hurt falling from a scaffold—a fall deliberately caused by a teenage boy.
Finding evidence that the boy’s attack is linked to his mother’s suicide fifteen years earlier, Renzo decides to reexamine the woman’s death, hoping his work on the case will help him get promoted.
Frustrated with her own case, Giuliana can’t help getting involved in Renzo’s. Now that he and his wife have separated, she finally has to decide what she wants from their future together.
