Tibor Malkáv is an ordinary 37-year-old man, having serious communication problems. He is precise and silent. Though not rich, he can buy whatever he needs. He doesn't depend on his job financially. He loves being a forensic pathologist. A few floors up in the hospital where he works lies his mother with cancer in her spinal cord. No matter how speechless or shallow this relationship is, Malkáv has no other relatives. He promises he will not let her die. But the surgery can only be performed in Sweden and the cost is far beyond Malkáv's means. One day a one-eyed person introducing himself as the Cyclops sits at his dinner table and makes him an offer: if Malkáv kills an unknown person, the Cyclops will provide the money for the Swedish hospital. Malkáv takes the job. A few days later he kills the person he had never met before. Soon it turns out to be the greatest mistake of his life. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)

Nice, nice, but despite how indisputably interesting the main character is, the untraditional construction of the story (the protagonist commits murder – psycho-thriller – and then investigates why he committed it – detective), etc., the most interesting and entertaining thing for me was the very first scene, where a woman falls out of a window in a very funny way :-D, er, that’s sad. ()
This is sort of a heavy combination of fun and serious atmosphere. The protagonist looks like a spitting image of the current leader of the neo-Nazi political party in Bundesrepublik Deutschland. Except for the fact that he doesn’t say much and when he does, he’s trying to tug at our heartstrings to try and stir some emotions. I had a good laugh here and there, but the main character is so eccentric that you’ll either love him or completely ignore him. ()
