Summary

Kater disembowels people for a living to give them to his employer, the doctor, and things are not going well for him. His girlfriend Maria has left him, he can’t remember the last time he won at the local rat races. He could start all over again, if he were ready to erase brains. His debts would be discharged, his honour re-established. But his professional ethos doesn't allow him to do that. He is in a dilemma.
