Translated into English:
“A very good interesting
book. At the end I was a little disappointed that it will probably continue and the characters which I loved will not be there any more.. . What blew my mind was how  all the motives  ended up mixed  together. I would compare it to the Nightside by S.R. Green in regard of the  variety of creatures and mysterious characters who pull the strings in order to achieve their goals.”

Synopsis:
Contemporary
 City of Prague. The day turns into night, people walk in the streets and   among them unnoticed the beings which are not human or are only half human. However, somebody can recognize them…
The employees of Detective Agency Sirius are connected by their  willingness and ability to investigate cases in which the cause of human unhappiness comes from a supernatural source.
Cursed Albrecht, rune reader Margot, strongman Vidocq and insane beauty Sangria. They go on the trail of missing children, strange phenomena, driven by a desire for revenge or rescue. They travel to the edge, where humanity ends and an abyss of dreams and nightmares begins. And as it happens in bad dreams – many stories do not end well…
