  • Inspector Oppenheimer’s fourth case: A series of murders in bomb-flattened Berlin

A brutal murder in 1946 in the milieu of the German refugees from the former eastern territories

 

Berlin 1946: After the end of the war, Inspector Oppenheimer uses his investigative intuition to find missing persons. For this reason, he regularly visits the refugee camps in Berlin. When the disfigured body of an “ethnic German” refugee is found, Soviet Colonel Akasakow orders Oppenheimer to investigate the matter. It is not long before there are more brutal murders. Clearly the murderers are working down a list of Nazi henchmen in order to exact a late revenge...

 

“Very historically accurate, atmospherically intense and extraordinarily exciting to boot.” - Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung online
