Bøger af Donato Carrisi

På overfladen virker den lille by Avechot som en helt almindelig bjergby – isoleret, søvnig og tryg – men da en teenagepige pludselig forsvinder, bliver roen forstyrret. Det lille samfund er rystet. Er hun stukket af? Har nogen gjort hende ondt? Hvem ville røre stille og søde Anna Lou? Specialkommissær Vogel bliver kaldt ind til at lede efterforskningen. Vogel er en excentrisk ældre herre, og hans alternative strategier og selvskabte mediecirkus går dårligt i spænd med de religiøse beboere og Avechots kapitalistiske kræfter, som kun værner om byens omdømme. Efterhånden som Vogels efterforskning trækker ud, medieopmærksomheden stiger, og mistanker spreder sig, falder Anna Lous forsvinden i baggrunden. Hvad er folk mest optagede af – at finde Anna Lou eller pege på en skyldig? En ting er sikker, sagen har dybe rødder som rækker længere tilbage i historien, end nogen kan forestille sig.
