The Man from the Shack
A mysterious death, a false identity and a dark past.
The body of a man is found in an old hut on the outskirts of the city. Everyone assumes he was just another homeless drunk. But nothing is as it seems. The dead man was hiding under a false identity, his past is full of blank spots, and the autopsy report complicates things even further. A journalist, Marek Vráz, nicknamed Terence, starts investigating a man who seems to have disappeared long before his death. The closer he gets to the truth, the more he realises that some secrets are bigger than anyone could possibly imagine.
