Vares – Garter Snake

Who is the poisonous garter snake? Vares tracks down adulterers and is close to death all the time.

Synopsis

In Kakola prison, Torsten Rapp, a dangerous disciplinary prisoner, is preparing his escape. Deputy lawyer Pauli Kontio suspects his wife of infidelity.

The womanising restaurant pianist Jesus Maria Lobo moves swiftly around the city, followed by another private detective, Wasenius, too. The gym of Voitto Fjäder and Inga has a strange crowd. The life of Vares, fresh on the trail, is again at stake and many lives are at stake in Turku.
