Don’t trust anyone—neither your doctor, nor a sensation-hungry journalist, and most importantly, don’t trust yourself. Michael Shipman comes to this conclusion after finding himself in a psychiatric hospital. But what worries the new patient most is the lack of memory of the last two weeks of life. Such a lapse in memory is frightening, especially since a serial killer is operating in the city, cutting off the faces of victims. Gradually, the suspicion of his involvement in crimes grows stronger, because Mike is sure that strange faceless people have been watching him all his life... For the first time in Russian, a new novel from the author of the famous trilogy about John Wayne Cleaver, a fifteen-year-old teenager, a hunter of serial killers - a trilogy that has been compared with the famous TV series about Dexter.
