The error

A dazzling, abyssal book that combines tension, illusion, and obsession into a toxic cocktail. Marek Sindelka's debut novel merges suspense and surreal poetry into a shimmering blend: Krystof, the loner, grows up with Andrei, the "Raven," and the precocious Nina in a small Czech village on the edge of the woods. He discovers his passion for plants and becomes captivated by orchid collectors, for whom he begins to import forbidden rarities from the jungle at the risk of his life. Krystof becomes entangled in a mysterious story where a fourteen-year-old blind killer, a valuable carnivorous orchid, the Russian mafia, and not least his lost great love Nina play a crucial role. When Krystof's body is found in a field of giant poisonous plants, the police face more than just a riddle.
