Daniel strávil s Clarou čtyři roky a byl naprosto spokojený. Ona asi ne, protože ho ze dne na den opustila a nechala mu jen ošklivého psa a dlouhý dopis plný obvinění. Takže teď je zase svobodný muž – až na jeden závazek. Neměl to srdce dát Dogga do útulku, i když to byl vlastně Clařin pes a on si s ním neví moc rady. Rozhodl se najít mu nový domov.. Úřednice v útulku se při pročítání Doggových materiálů najednou zamračí. „To je zvláštní, byl u nás jen týden, když si ho vaše přítelkyně vybrala.“ „No a?“ „Já bych ho tipovala na doživotí.“ „Na doživotí?“ „Jako ve vězení… že tu prostě už dožije.“ „Proč to říkáte?“ „No… vždyť se na něj podívejte.“

A riveting and evocative tale of passion and murder, set on the French Riviera in the 1930s, from the No. 1 bestselling author of The Savage Garden.

For the people of Malta in 1942, suffering daily bombing raids from the Luftwaffe, the British Army represent their only hope of defending their lone outpost in Nazi waters. And it is Max Chadwick's job to make certain the islanders keep thinking that.

Set in Italy in 1958, 'The Savage Garden' is the story of two unsolved murders - one committed in the late Renaissance, the other in 1944, during the dying days of the German army's occupation.
