A masterpiece of crime suspense that astonished the world with a new Asian talent! The plot is reminiscent of Seicho Matsumoto and Yoshitaro Nomura! A man and a woman fall into the darkness of an unsolved serial murder case. What is the truth behind their dangerous love cloaked in melancholy, sensuality, and madness? --The story unfolds around the mystery of a series of dismemberment murders that took place in 1999 in North China. In this bizarre case, the mutilated body parts of a man are found one after another in 15 coal factories in six different cities. Jean, a detective with a troubled personal life, takes charge of the investigation, but when the suspect's brother resists arrest and is shot dead, the truth is buried in the dark. In 2004, Jean, now a humble security guard, learns that the police are pursuing two murders with a similar M.O. to that of five years earlier, and he embarks on his own investigation. Just before they were killed, both victims were intimate with a beautiful young widow named Wu. Is this just a coincidence, or is Wu an evil woman who leads men to their doom? And Jean, too, is unintentionally captivated by Wu...
