This is a disturbing and finely-wrought crime novel. A father sees his family stricken by tragedy when his oldest daughter is brutally attacked in a Montreal car park on New Year's Eve. Yannis Fokas, a Greek immigrant, has worked hard to build a better future for his children. But the sordid attack on his daughter and the resulting changes in his own behaviour, have a devastating impact. The author takes us on the painful journey of a father in search of justice, as well as into the world of a Quebecois detective investigating the incident, who is experiencing his own family drama. By weaving together the daily challenges of these two men, Pan Bouyoucas reveals to us the complex world of two families and their common destiny.
