The Bone Man (2013)
“Because that was his first year on the police force, and on the day of the Olympic Downhill, he had to break into a hotel staffer’s room. There was a street-level lobby that took you from the main road that runs through the town of Hallein directly to the staffer’s room. More like a laundry room, where the waiter from the Kino Bar had been put up.
A few people were standing in front of an electronics store on the other side of the street because the Olympic Downhill event was being broadcast on... the color TV screens in the window display. And maybe that’s why Brenner and his colleague didn’t get the door open for so long, because they kept looking over at the Olympic coverage.
Even now, Brenner could still remember how his colleague had once torn his uniform jacket on a piece of sheet metal. Then, a few years later, he ordered a Filipina from a catalog who only weighed forty kilos. Brenner didn’t know his name anymore. But the stench that they were met with when they finally got the door open—never in his life would he forget that.MoreLess
