C'est devenu une obsession : tous les six mois, Bosch ressort le dossier Marie Gesto, jeune fille dont la mystérieuse disparition n'a jamais été élucidée. En treize ans d'enquête, il n'a rien pu trouver : ni indice, ni suspect, pas même le corps de la jeune victime. Un jour enfin le coupable passe aux aveux, mais Bosch se méfie : pour lui, l'homme n'est rien d'autre qu'un imposteur talentueux doublé d'un bouc émissaire idéal. Une dernière fois, Bosch reprend l'enquête...
