Review:
"Boll sustains a masterly and insidious tension to the end. He is detached, angry and totally in control" (The Times)
"Such is the force of Boll's conviction, the clarity of his vision and the icy economy of his unemotive prose that within this short space he has distilled a spirit that burns into the palate the unmistakeable and lasting tang of truth" (Sunday Times)
"A marvel of compression and irony" (Sunday Telegraph)

"A marvel of compression and irony" (Sunday Telegraph)
An unforgettable novel that shows how easily a life can be ruined when the police and the media are allowed to run rampage through a person's life. It resonates as strongly today as it did in 1970s Germany.
