Synopsis

For seven years, Sasza Zulaska has lived with her little girl in the north of England. Far from her previous job as an undercover cop, far from her dependence on alcohol and the traumatic case that made her flee from the police, her family and her native Poland.

But now she is coming back.

This time, Sasza is looking for a quieter life. She has studied to become a psychological profiler and she soon picks up a freelance job to check out some threats made against the owner of a nightclub.

But no sooner has Sasza visited the club than a man is murdered there and Sasza finds herself drawn back towards the world she left behind.

The dead man is a musician - famous for one song in particular: Girl at Midnight. Both the song and the crime seem to be connected to a double tragedy of years before, when a brother and sister both died on the same day.

Now Sasza Zulaska must follow a crooked, complex trail from a violent past to a more sophisticated criminal present, in which the gangsters have corrupted every level of society.

Girl at Midnight has old over a million copies in Poland and Katarzyna Bonda has become her country's undisputed Queen of Crime.

Ja wiem, że życie nie jest różowe i wielu ludzi ma poważne problemy, ale czy to jest misja polskiej literatury żeby......more

Goodreads review by Olga

Świetna intryga, brutalna proza i solidnie wykonana kryminalna robota. Na dokładkę pierwsza w polskiej prozie pełnokrwista profilerka, która przyciąga jak magnes. Świetnie oddane realia pracy policji oraz zmiany, jakie zaszły w Polsce w ostatnich dwudziestu latach. Wciąga i pochłania.......more

3,5/5 Początek niesamowicie mnie wciągnął, środek był dramatycznie rozwleczony, momentami chciałam ją odłożyć, było za długo i zbyt nudno, ale jakieś ostatnie 200 stron pochłonęłam dosłownie na raz i podobna mi się rozwiązanie, chociaż pozostały jakieś niedokończone wątki, i polubiłam bohaterów, a ja......more
