Three police problems that need solving and a strange story with a black cat make up the collection of short stories that you hold in your hands. A genius, quirky and slightly snobbish researcher and a paranoid alcoholic criminal are the protagonists who overturn the established and reveal to us a wild second nature, where logic meets the improbable.
