Description:
A violently funny thriller and vitriolic exposé of Opus Dei's influence in judicially corrupt Belgium.
Review Quotes:
"In contrast with Mankell, the warm-hearted psychologist of the individual, we find Geeraerts, a cold-blooded surgeon who lays bare the ills of a society. This thriller, so loyal to the genre that the irony and parody are barely perceptible, is relentless." Tagesspiegel Berlin "One of Geeraerts literary achievements is that such a shameless and baroque character as Savelkoul ends up attracting your sympathy. A revealing study of a very dark society."
