Travesty

Overview

A big city detective Davaa is summoned to the Mongolian hinterlands because of a most unusual hostage situation. When Davaa arrives he finds himself surrounded by local police and officials who mock the situation and seem bizarrely frivolous in their duty to the hostages being ransomed for 1 billion Mongolian tugrik a person. This Ransom is an oddly precise sum related to a travesty of justice that tragically unfolds.
