Summary
One evening in September, Ivan Braginski runs into the most American man imaginable. The two begin an affair that's difficult to define - it's a love-hate sort of thing where neither can say how serious they are about the other.
Ivan is the lead detective in the Baton killer case. He is a man troubled by something in his past, bad with people, and secretive. He thinks one thing and says the other. He rarely speaks of himself.
Alfred is a firefighter. He's social, open and oblivious. He most often speaks of himself, and has next to no secrets.
While the murders go on, Ivan and Al slowly find love. They start spending more time together and learn to know each other better. This is only a positive experience for Ivan - Al finds many of the things he finds out about his eccentric lover worrying. First of all, there's the way he doesn't seem to care at all about the victims of the serial killer he's trying to catch. Second of all, he has little sympathy towards anyone not his immediate family and Al. Third of all, the murders coincide scarily conveniently with the days Ivan acted oddly.
What to do when you suspect your lover of being a serial killer?
