Mass graves have been found in long-closed and forgotten mines: dozens of women, raped and murdered, lay there for many years, and it seems that the killer — who immediately received the grim nickname Charon — operated many decades ago.... Meanwhile, women continue to be abducted and killed right now — and, judging by their mutilated corpses, it is the work of the same relentless predator, although in that case, he would already be nearly a hundred years old. But how is this possible? Does it mean that evil continues, reproduces itself, and does not die even with the death of a person? Maxime Chattam is a French thriller star, a holder of prestigious awards, and the author of novels that sell millions of copies in France and have become bestsellers in another two dozen countries. In his new novel, partly inspired by 'The Silence of the Lambs' by one of his idols, Thomas Harris, former investigator Ludivine Vancker, transitioning to work in the department of behavioral sciences, once again encounters what she understands best in the world. The thing that ominously looms just beyond the realm of humanity, only waiting for permission to enter. The predator does not sleep — he freezes, hides, and observes. In his constancy, he is unshakable. He decides whether you deserve to survive. For the first time in Russian!
