THE ANARCHIST DETECTIVE
Book ID/图书代码： 11320012B57421
English Summary/英文概要： Sent on sick leave after his last case, Max Cámara returns to his home town in the plains of La Mancha - birthplace of Don Quixote and producer of the world’s finest saffron.
As he arrives, the police discover the naked body of a young woman on a rubbish tip. For Cámara, it’s far too close for comfort to an unsolved case that shocked the city thirty years ago. It’s hard to stay away, though, especially when the local police chief, a childhood friend, is calling on him for help, whispering about an international saffron mafia. And then there’s his eccentric grandfather, Hilario, who appears to be harbouring secrets of his own.
Back in a world he has been avoiding for years, Cámara is dogged by questions. It’s time for some difficult choices: leave the police for good, and continue with the only woman who really understands him, or join a murder investigation that will tear open old wounds?
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 自從解決了上個案件以後，馬克思•卡馬拉回到他的故鄉拉曼查平原休病假。拉曼查是堂吉訶德的出生地，也是世界上最好的番紅花產地。
在他抵達的時候，當地警察在垃圾棄置場發現了一具年輕女子的裸屍。這次案件和三十年前一起震驚全城的未解決案件有關，現在卡馬拉離這個案子如此接近，這讓他感覺不是很舒服。但是當地的警察局長是他從小的朋友，他來尋求卡馬拉的幫助，卡馬拉從他口中聽到關於國際番紅花黑手黨的傳聞。卡馬拉那古怪的祖父希拉裡奧也牽扯進來，他似乎也隱藏著什麽秘密。
卡馬拉被困住了，他必須做個艱難的選擇：不插手當地警察的工作并和那個唯一理解自己的女人好好相處，或者參與一項會揭開舊傷疤的罪案調查。(Flora)
