7,56 €

A childhood memory of a murder once quickly closed by the police returns a quarter of a century later. Commissioner Marie Výrová meets Hana Kolihová and begins reading the old case file differently from her predecessors.

In August 1987, twelve-year-old Hana witnesses a murder in a villa by a river. The police arrest the perpetrator unusually quickly, and nobody takes her account of a green apparition seriously. The experience stays with her for years.

Marie Výrová initially reopens the file out of curiosity. She discovers errors in the investigation and further possible motives within family relationships. Michal Sýkora builds the commissioner's third case around the tension between memory, an official conclusion, and a fresh perspective. The investigation also explores how violence continues to affect a family.
