Markus Steiner is back in his second case.
When politician Anton Fürst is found brutally murdered at home, carved with symbols that suggest political assassination, Steiner and his partner Hans Schwarz uncover a web of Nazi infiltration poisoning their beloved city. But as they peel back layers of deception, the investigation takes a devastating personal turn that threatens to destroy everything Steiner believes about justice and loyalty.
Racing against unseen conspirators who will kill to protect their secrets, Steiner must navigate treacherous alliances while protecting Katharina Zeller, the widow whose dangerous past threatens them both. With enemies closing in from the highest levels of power, Steiner faces an impossible choice: expose the truth and risk everything he holds dear, or let justice die in the shadows of a rising darkness.

Markus Steiner in his first case.
Bern, Switzerland, 1932. As winter’s chill grips the Swiss capital and Europe trembles on the edge of catastrophe, freshly promoted Detective Markus Steiner faces a baptism by fire. The son of a Swiss diplomat and an English mother, Steiner has always followed the rules—until now.
Paired with resentful veteran Hans Schwarz, Steiner is thrust into the investigation of a wealthy industrialist’s apparent suicide. But when their prime suspect turns up dead, the case spins into a tangled web of political intrigue, powerful adversaries, and secrets the elite will kill to protect.
Steiner soon discovers that justice in Bern has a price—and every clue leads closer to sacrificing his hard-earned badge, or even his own life. Haunted by expectations, tempted by the industrialist’s beguiling widow and hounded by questions of loyalty and integrity, Steiner must decide: how far will he go to unmask a murderer no one wants exposed?
