Easter, 1895. The biggest event in the Catholic calendar is a disaster in Zofia Turbotynska' s household. Her maid Karolina has handed in her notice and worse, gone missing. When Karolina' s body is discovered, violated and stabbed, Zofia knows she has to investigate. Following a trail that leads her from the poorest districts of Galicia to the highest echelons of society, Zofia uncovers a web of gang crimes, sex-trafficking and corruption that will force her to question everything she knows. Set against the backdrop of the women' s cause, Karolina, or the Torn Curtain refuses to turn a blind eye to the injustices and inequalities of its era - and ours.
