The novel revolves around a judicial investigator trying to track down criminal offenses in a small village in Upper Egypt, only to be surprised by something more dangerous: murders without logical motives, suspicious suicides, and the burning of crops and houses without clear reasons. The growing state of suspicion affects everyone, including the investigator, whose destiny intersects with a mysterious Coptic woman. In this novel, the author Ashraf El-Ashmawy delves into complex psyches, weaving his events into new and astonishing worlds, and creating humorous yet tearful ironies, through an engaging narrative rhythm that enriches thought and stimulates imagination, leaving ample room for interpretation for the reader.
