About this book
A retired Italian factory worker walks into a Berlin hotel and kills a wealthy industrialist, then says nothing at all. The defence falls to Caspar Leinen, a newly qualified lawyer taking his first murder brief, who soon discovers that the victim was a man he knew and loved. As the trial opens, the silence of his client forces him to dig into decades-old records and into the uncomfortable question of what the law counted as justice in another era. Spare, cool prose and short chapters drive a compact courtroom story about guilt, loyalty and the limits of statute.
