"At age thirty, Elish Ben Zaken is disenchanted with (and been rejected by) the Tel Aviv rock-music scene he once embraced. Working for a private investigation agency, he is a finder of stolen cars and wayward husbands. He is asked to look into the suicide of an infamous philosophy professor, and the police file contains an allusion to Dalia Shushan, a celebrated rock singer whose recent murder was an open-and-shut case. Haunted by the ghost of Dalia, Elish must face the long-buried traumas of his own life to unravel the intertwining threads of two lives, and their ends." -- Adapted from back cover.
