This is great crime novel by one of the better Croatian writers, Goran Tribuson. Police inspector while having trouble with his divorced wife and their ill daughter stumbles upon dead man near the railway. Soon after misleading evidences and red herrings he finds that dead man was trying to uncover secret about mysterious multinational corporation with partnership in Croatia. Socially conscious and foreboding, novel is very well written and resemble some of Chandler's work.
