Retired: A visitor from the past
Some sins cannot be buried. The third case in the series with the old-school detective.
When human remains are found during the construction of a house in a sleepy village, it understandably causes a stir. Who does the well-preserved skeleton belong to? How old is it and how did the person die? Local native and retired detective Arnošt Milota, nicknamed Arno, tries to crack this mystery on his own. He embarks on a search not only for the identity of the dead man, but also for old village injustices that have emerged along with the man from the past.
