“Evil, frantic, ruthless. Raw and violent [...]. A gift worth a definitive consecration." —La Stampa
“A high-level thriller [...]. Very black.” —La Repubblica
When young Marlene discovers in the winter of 1974 that she is pregnant with Herr Wegener’s child, her husband and the most feared man in all of Tyrol, she realizes that she must escape from him if she wants to raise her child far away from violence. But while she’s on the run from him she has a car accident from which she is saved by Simon Keller, a mountain farmer who lives in the traditional Tyrolean style.
While he cares for her on his remote farm, Herr Wegener is determined to defend his reputation at all costs to the Consortium, the powerful criminal organization he pays homage to. The hunt has been entrusted to an infallible hit man, as cold as he is deadly, nicknamed the Trusted Man, who will not stop until he fulfills his mission. Soon Marlene won't know which threat is greater: her husband, the nameless killer, or Lissy, the darkest mystery on Keller's farm."
