International bestselling author
'This is at once a thriller, a story of middle-aged angst, an exposition of international law and an exploration of an intensely serious and very nasty episode in recent history ... admirable and important.'
The New York Times Book Review
Four hundred dead. Only one witness. Scott Turow is back tackling his biggest case yet in The Hague ...
Bill ten Boom has walked out on everything he thought was important to him: his career, his wife, even his country. Invited to become a prosecutor at The Hague’s International Criminal Court, it was a chance to start afresh.
But when his first case is to examine the disappearance of 400 Roma refugees – an apparent war crime left unsolved for ten years – it’s clear this new life won’t be an easy one ...
Whispered rumours have the perpetrators ranging from Serb paramilitaries to the U.S. Army, but there’s no hard evidence to hold either accountable, and only a single witness to say it happened at all.
To get to the truth, Boom must question the integrity of every person linked to the case – from Layton Merriwell, a disgraced US Major General, to flirtatious barrister, Esma Czarni – as it soon becomes apparent that every party has a vested interest and no qualms in steering the investigation their way ...
'Bestseller Turow movingly evokes the horrors of the Balkan wars in this gripping thriller.'
Publisher's Weekly
'A complex and haunting tale of war crimes that will not only satisfy his courtroom drama devotees but also readers of international thrillers.'
