Outcasts: Case three - Anja Mijović

Image
Andrej Popović and Uroš Stanić from the Department for High-Tech Crime are determined to expose the worst crimes not only in the sphere of their department, but also more widely, reacting to every injustice that stands in their way. With that attitude, they made enemies among the powerful, thugs and local tabloids. During a routine monitoring, they unexpectedly come across a den of human trafficking. The reaction is lightning fast and the department quickly disperses the criminal's lair. However, by doing so, it's as if they touched the beehive and only angered the rest of the swarm... In the exciting third part of Ooutcasts, a series that leaves you breathless, Anja Mijović continues to mercilessly reveal all the malignant points of Serbian society. I bought it, I read it, I was blown away!!! No, no... I literally fell off my feet.

Today, Paul Adams is still haunted by the case because both the killer and the victim were Paul's friends.

Soon everything starts to go wrong, the web of events from twenty-five years ago slowly begins to unravel, and Paul discovers some dark family secrets. Detective Amanda Black investigates a new case of a Charlie impersonator. Inevitably, their paths will cross. Hmm...

The story of Charlie, the dr...
