Synopsis
In the third Jana Matinova investigation, a student has been shot and killed in an upscale hotel in Bratislava. It appears to be a professional assassination, but who would want to kill a starving student? After examining the crime scene, Jana Matinova pays a visit to her lover, a government prosecutor. But when she arrives at his office, she learns that he's been killed by a phone bomb. Jana is devastated but determined to find the murderer. Professional killings aren't common in Bratislava - could the two killings be connected?

Review
"Jana, like a Femme Nikita working the right side of the law, and her professor sidekick are a study in opposites, trading the roles of magician and accomplice in order to stay one step ahead of the assassins. Genelin, like a consummate conjurer himself, effectively deploys a complex story and massive cast of characters to dazzle the reader and pull more than a few rabbits out of his hat."--Boston Globe
"The reader gets quite a lot in Michael Genelin's Jana Matinova investigation novels. There's always a fast-moving plot, a whodunit mystery element, a travelogue that includes some lesser-known spots in Eastern Europe, perceptive social and political commentary on Europe in the post-Soviet era and a wide array of vivid characters... It also allows us an insider's look on the bureaucracy of today's Europe, equally ominous on both sides of what used to be the Iron Curtain."--Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
"Along with the authenticity of place, the relationship between this unlikely duo is one of the treats of this novel."--Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel
