Rosso is the Detective Inspector trying to find a brutal murderer in the heart of a Balkan city ravaged by war. He has learnt to take each day as it comes, with bullets, violence and death around every corner. Luka is Sarajevo's crime boss, intent on exploiting the misery of his city's inhabitants while also providing the only means of defence they have left.

Given his narrative drive and masterly suspense, he has a very serious future'' Daily Telegraph '`Fullerton captures the grit and dust of the imploding city beautifully'' Observer
