In a corrupt Algeria, Superintendent Llob tries to rescue a young officer implicated in a crime that looks like a failed crime of passion: a serial killer released through administrative negligence wounds a senior member of the nomenklatura with the agent's weapon. The investigation uncovers a plot dating back to the country's independence.

For readers of crime fiction with a political and historical backdrop, and for those who follow the Superintendent Llob series.
Mohammed Moulessehoul, better known by the pen name Yasmina Khadra, is an Algerian author living in France, who writes in French. One of the most famous Algerian novelists in the world, he has written almost 40 novels, and has published in more than 50 countries. Khadra has often explored Algerian and other Arab countries' civil wars, depicting Muslim conflicts and reality, the attraction of radical Islamism to those alienated by the incompetence and hypocrisy of politicians, and conflicts between East and West. In his several writings on the Algerian war, he has exposed the regime and the fundamentalist opposition as the joint guilty parties in the country's tragedy.
