It is the end of October, the city of Basel is grey and wet. It
could be December. It is just after midnight when Police Inspector
Peter Hunkeler, on his way home and slightly worse for wear, spots
old man Hardy sitting on a bench under a street light. He wants to
smoke a cigarette with him, but the usually very loquacious Hardy
is silent-his throat a gaping wound. Turns out he was first
strangled and his left earlobe slit, the diamond stud he usually
wore there missing. The media and the police come quickly to the
same conclusion: Hardy's murder was the work of a gang of Albanian
drug smugglers. But for Hunkeler that seems too obvious a
resolution. After all, Barabara Amsler, a prostitute, was also
recently found strangled, her ear slit. He follows his own
intuition and methods which lead him deep into a seedy world of
bars and night clubs. More ominously, he soon must face the
consequences of certain events in recent Swiss history that those
in power would prefer to keep far from the public eye.
