A Grain of Truth by Zygmunt Miloszewski

The new, long-awaited second crime novel featuring Teodor Szacki. It is spring 2009, and the prosecutor is no longer working in Warsaw - he has said goodbye to his family and to his career in the capital and moved to Sandomierz, a picturesque town full of churches and museums. Hoping to start a 'brave new life', Szacki instead finds himself investigating a strange murder case in surroundings both alien and unfriendly. Szacki cannot avoid considering that these crimes could be a form of retribution by a Jewish madman, but could this be a false trail laid by the murderer?
PRAISE FOR ENTANGLEMENT (978-1904738-442) "Miloszewski takes an engaging look at modern Polish society in this stellar first in a new series starring Warsaw prosecutor Teodor SzackiReaders will want to see more of the complex, sympathetic Szacki."

It opens with a murder and quickly develops into a fast-moving and tightly plotted whodunit with a host of colourful characters and vivid descriptions of contemporary Cracow. But it's the unsatisfactory personal life and emotional turmoil of its hero, State Prosecutor Teodor Szacki that steal centre stage." Oxford Times
