This book is set in Miami, 1981. When Detective Max Mingus and his partner Joe are called to the scene of a death at Miami's Primate Park, it looks like another routine - if slightly bizarre - investigation. Until two things turn up: the victim's family, slaughtered; and a partly digested tarot card in the dead man's stomach; 'The King of Swords'. An increasingly bloody trail leads Max and Joe first to a sinister fortune-teller and her scheming pimp son, then to the infamous Solomon Boukman. Few have ever met the most feared criminal in Miami, but rumours abound of a forked tongue, voodoo ceremonies and friends in very high places. Against a backdrop of black magic and police corruption, Max and Joe must distinguish the good guys from the bad - and track down some answers. What is the significance of the King of Swords? What makes those who have swallowed the card go on a killing spree just before they die? And can Max find out the truth about Solomon Boukman, before death's shadow reaches his own front door?

Recenze
Hlavní hrdina detektiv a jeho parťák jsou pozvání k vraždě v Miamském parku - vypadá to jako další vražda.
Dokud se neobjeví věci, které z této vraždy tak obyčejnou nedělají:
- tarotová karta v žaludku oběti
- rodina oběti
Detektivové se vydají k věštkyni, pasákovi...
Na pozadí celé vraždy se odehrává černá magie.
Jaký je význam tarotové karty?
proč by někdo tu kartu spolkl před vraždou?
Zjistí pravdu a vše odhalí, než je dostihne přízrak.
