Betrayal in the highest circles

  • A police major against his will and high treason in Prussia!
  • A highly suspenseful historical criminal case meets dramatic personal destinies

The start of a gripping historical crime series set in the time of Bismarck

 

Berlin, 1864: After being wounded in the Danish War, the battle-hardened Major Dirk von Marun is transferred to the police force. He is not particularly welcome there, and he himself had imagined a different future. Nevertheless, the public prosecutor entrusts him with a particularly sensitive investigation: highly sensitive state secrets have been betrayed to the Tsarist Empire. Apart from Otto von Bismarck, only five other gentlemen from the highest circles of society have access. Marun must be as discreet as he is skilful if he does not want to put himself in grave danger.
