摘要

In Hill's debut, Barcelona's Insp. Hector Salgado has returned from a forced holiday, having been found responsible for the beating of a suspect in a trafficking case involving teenage African girls. Salgado is ordered to look into the apparent accidental death of a young man. He realizes there is a connected case, the drowning of a young girl that occurred several years earlier. Past crimes have been covered up. New crimes are committed. The trafficking suspect is murdered; another girl dies. The cases are intertwined.
