In 1932 during the final weeks of the Weimar Republic, Detective Willi Kraus is dragged through a German underworld he hardly recognizes to investigate a string of bizarre murders. But this is only the beginning for Kraus, his family, and ultimately his investigation, as a new power ushers in the Third Reich. This powerful debut thriller features a good man trapped between his duty and his grave doubts about what, and who, he serves.
