This day was supposed to be different, but instead of laughter and fun, it brought despair and fear. Ada Rezler was not yet four years old when her teenage brother Igor disappeared while playing hide and seek. What happened that day in the clearing? This question remained unanswered for years.

Twenty years later, the memories of those tragic moments come rushing back with full force. The contents of a mysterious envelope that Ada finds at her apartment door compel her to return to her hometown to confront the past and uncover the truth, no matter how it looks.

This story is like a broken mirror. Only the assembled fragments create a clear picture of the whole, into which the traumatized characters still struggle to see. It is a tale of great pain and equally great loneliness. A painful journey into the past and into oneself.

A story about a boy who disappeared and a girl who will forever bear the burden of that absence.

A dark and atmospheric tale that intertwines the past and present, delving into the minds of the characters and the reader. An excellent psychological thriller – Jędrzej Pasierski.
