Warsaw’s glittering facade hides a terrifying darkness. A new thriller, “Crusade,” plunges into the heart of Poland’s capital, exposing a chilling series of crimes that threaten to unravel the city’s elite.
Detective Jan Góra Mandżaro, a hardened investigator, faces a case unlike any other. The discovery of a brutally murdered young woman, a victim of unimaginable violence, is just the beginning. The horror escalates when the suspect flees, clutching a disturbing manifesto that hints at a far-reaching conspiracy.

A powerful banker, a celebrated journalist, a politician, even a judge from a popular talent show – all become victims in a meticulously orchestrated campaign of terror.
Mandżaro quickly realizes this isn’t a random string of attacks. A sweeping, city-wide conspiracy is at play, and each gruesome discovery pulls him deeper into a labyrinth of secrets and lies. He must relentlessly pursue the evidence, no matter how disturbing, to uncover the truth.
