In 1935, as Europe prepares for war, six dangerous murderers are confined to an asylum in Czechoslovakia. Dr. Viktor Kosárek, a young psychiatrist, has the task of discovering the secrets these criminals hide. At the same time, a serial killer terrorizes Prague, leaving behind a series of crimes that seem the work of the devil himself. What connection exists between this killer and the madmen of the asylum? Viktor must find the truth in a novel full of imagination and suspense, set in dark Czechoslovakia on the brink of World War II.
