Description:

Fabio Montale has left the police force marred by corruption, racism and greed to follow the serene rhythms of his native town: the sea, fishing, and the local bar. But staying out is not going to be so easy. When his cousin's son goes missing, Montale is dragged back into the mean streets of a violent crime infested Marseille. To discover the truth about the boy's disappearance, he infiltrates a dangerous underworld of mobsters, religious fanatics, crooked cops and ordinary people driven to extremes by desperation.
