"Mi-am propus sa va vorbesc despre minciuna, ceea ce înseamna despre un lucru pur omenesc: numai omul poate minti, pentru ca numai omul are parte de un "lucru" care poate sa exprime si care, exprimând, se poate misca în doua directii total opuse: adevarul si falsul intentionat. Acest "lucru" este limba. Voi vorbi despre minciuna nu în sensul ei "privat", ci în cel "public", asadar voi vorbi despre minciuna colectiva, în care unul sau mai multi îi mint pe multi care la rândul lor sunt fie mintiti, fie mint in corpore, traind împreuna cu cei care îi mint, într-un vast scenariu al minciunii." (Gabriel Liiceanu)

It's not the dead body - Jack Leightner has seen hundred of bodies in his tour with the NYPD. It's not the dank setting - the narrow banks along Brooklyn's Gowanus Canal. So why does the sight of the fatally stabbed young man make the detective almost faint in the canal's tangled weeds? Jack doesn't understand why he becomes obsessed with this low-priority case, why he allows it to jeopardize his career and even his life. Especially since the investigation draws him exactly where he doesn't want to go: into the heart of Red Hook.

In this third novel in Gabriel Cohen’s Edgar Award-nominated Jack Leightner crime series, the Brooklyn homicide detective investigates the serial killing of prostitutes in Crown Heights and the murder of a friend who ran afoul of Russian gangsters in Brighton Beach.
