"God knows how the glass was not broken that night, when they endured the drops of water that fell furiously, that they must have been disgraced by what they saw resembling in that room. The lightning flashed day and night for a second, and as you breathed, you heard a rattle that announced the earth for its sins. ” - excerpt, "Flama" - Tom Kuka.

"Flama" is the fourth novel by the author (Enkel Demi) who writes under the pseudonym Tom Kuka, after "Hide on the cobblestones" (2017), "Stones of loneliness" (2018), "The evil hour" (2019), all published by Pegi Publications.

In this novel, the author restores the character of Di Hima, the chief investigator of Tirana in "Hide on the cobblestones". In a "royal" Tirana where there is a lot of turmoil, filth, cruelty and wickedness, Flama is sitting cross-legged, the big monster, which is shortening life and killing humanity. But in the meantime, a seemingly ordinary crime occurs. The Curvature of the River Bank, which sees the cup and exposes the gossip to the people, has cut its throat with a razor.

Di Hima needs to discover the killer and the motives that pushed him to this cruelty. Is it a simple revenge? Or does woe go beyond the innocence of a cup?

Di Hima, like another Doctor Needle, seeks to find a killer, and the city is dying of death.
