    About the book: 2022 / How should smart adult women who have been friends since university years react to stupid letters from a blackmailer? Throw it away and forget it. Or should we still try to understand whether there is a reasonable explanation for the threats that seemed like a stupid prank? Especially if one of the friends almost immediately gets hit by a car... Together with the heroine who takes up the investigation, we are transported to the early 1990s, the second half of the 1970s, and more distant times. Recent events are intricately intertwined with stories that happened a long time ago, unexpected misfortunes with troubles that seemed to have been buried many years ago. Memories both help and hinder us in figuring out who is to blame for the half-forgotten mysterious tragedies and how they are connected with the dangers that befell those who once formed a cheerful student company. A detective novel develops into an exploration of our relationship to the past and makes us think about some very painful ethical issues..
