It was supposed to be an eventful but peaceful September for Leander Lost and Soraia: first the move to a new house, then their wedding. But the off-season doesn’t bring peace to Fuseta. A woman is found dead in a golf pond. Soon after, an armored truck is brutally robbed, which rouses dark memories of an old unsolved case …

Seven years earlier, Elias, Graciana Rosado’s brother, was murdered in a similar attack. Her father was seriously wounded. Now they’re both experiencing a dark déjà vu. Their colleague Duarte survives the shooting out of sheer luck but loses his memory. The investigation reveals that the robbery wouldn’t have been possible without insider information from the police ranks. While Leander helps Duarte rediscover the world, the robbery turns into a series, whose underlying pattern, however, remains unclear. Are the perpetrators only interested in getting their hands on money or is there something else behind their actions? As Leander Lost delves further and further into the case, he loses sight of the fact that Graciana has already taken the hunt for her brother’s murderers into her own hands.

Gil Ribeiro

Gil Ribeiro  (aka Holger Karsten Schmidt), born in 1965, ended up on the Algarve completely by chance during an Interrail journey across Europe in 1988 and immediately fell in love with the warmth and hospitality of the Portuguese. Ever since, he has found himself drawn back time and again to the small city of Fuseta on the eastern Algarve, which is where he got the idea for  Lost in Fuseta . Rights to the series have been sold to Czechia, Portugal and Spain.
