Behind the quiet street and its trees in Zagreb, in the sultry August of 2003, small lives go on: failed spies, depressed ladies, closeted gay men, ageing charmers, schizophrenics, policemen, people without papers and killers back from morning mass. In the strange, muggy unease a war veteran treated for PTSD is murdered in a perverse way, and another killing soon follows.
