About this title

Synopsis:

Reminiscent of The Third Man, a thriller by a former foreign correspondent follows a homicide investigator in wartorn Sarajevo as he tries to find the killer of a government official among the city's gangsters, snipers, and desperate bureaucrats.

From the Inside Flap:

"A mystery tinged by the politics of today...Brutally realistic." --U.S. News  & World Report

Dan Fesperman, a journalist who reported from a number of war zones, has written a masterful murder mystery in the vein of early le Carré and Graham Greene.

Vlado Petric is a homicide investigator in war-torn Sarajevo.  When he encounters an unidentified body near "sniper alley," he realizes that it is the body of Esmir Vitas, chief of the Interior Ministry's special police, and that Vitas has been killed not by any sniper's aim but by a bullet fired at almost pointblank range.  Searching for the killer in this "city of murderers," Petric finds himself drawn into a conspriacy, the scope of which goes beyond anything he could possibly have imagined.
