What faces can the crimes, mysteries, and secrets of Prague have? Fourteen prominent Czech authors have taken up the challenge to answer this question, continuing the rich tradition of crime and mystery stories set in Prague. The result is a unique and stylistically diverse collection that offers encounters with established names in Czech literature as well as future stars, serving as an unconventional guide to both traditional and lesser-known Prague locations. With Michaela Klevisová, we venture to the Žižkov freight station; with Miloš Urban, we explore Charles Bridge; in the action-packed stories of Štěpán Kopřiva and Martin Goffa, we visit Hostivař and Vyšehrad; Michal Sýkora takes us to Pohořelec; Petr Stančík peers into the mysterious world of the vanished Jewish ghetto; Petra Soukupová depicts an inexplicable disappearance in Stromovka; and Kateřina Tučková investigates the dark past of an old house on the Vltava embankment. This enlightening volume is curated by literary critic Pavel Mandys.
