What it’s about. The story of the investigation to unravel the mysterious death of a beautiful young woman in Nazi-occupied Warsaw.

Before the outbreak of war, the woman was his student as well as the object of his unrequited love.

It is a suspenseful story set in the faithfully-recreated reality of occupied Warsaw and Zakopane.
