Enemies of the ring

A city shrouded in mist. A harbour where not just goods, but also the truth, is smuggled. And Inspector O’Higgins, nicknamed The Chilean – a policeman who knows that justice rarely wins here and that every new case could be his last. When he starts to unravel murders, disappearances, and long-buried secrets, he soon discovers that behind the individual crimes lies not just human greed, but also a web of corruption stretching from the underworld to those meant to uphold the law. Every clue leads to another lie, every witness is hiding something, and every answer opens up new questions. In a world where the past refuses to stay buried and the truth can be more dangerous than a lie, The Chilean must decide if it’s still possible to remain an honest cop. Nepřátelé kruhu is an atmospheric noir detective story, full of suspense, cynical humour, unforgettable characters, and moral dilemmas. It’s a novel about crime, guilt, and the price of truth in a world where the greatest enemies aren’t those who stand against each other, but those who have closed the circle.
