The Cain Conspiracy

Meer over het boek

"I know that abysses will open up when you begin to tell your story. But you must tell it, for I must know the truth, the whole truth." This is what Prosecutor Paradin says to Richard Mark, a once-celebrated novelist now in pre-trial detention. Richard Mark recounts his life: his great love, Lillian Lombard; his brother Werner, who wants him dead and whom he betrays; and all the people inextricably linked to his tragic fate. Johannes Mario Simmel brings to life not only Richard Mark's story but also the recent past and present of our people and our country, confronting us with harsh realities.
