Ukraine, 1943. Amidst the preparation of an offensive by the armies of the Third Reich, Commander Martin Bora, an officer in the German intelligence service, is tasked with interrogating the Russian general Platonov. However, the situation becomes complicated when Platonov and his friend Khan Tibyetskji, a former hero of the Soviet Revolution, turn up dead in less than twenty-four hours. The official versions of their deaths do not convince Bora, who decides to investigate thoroughly, delving into a dangerous forest where mysterious disappearances occur. This investigation will test Bora's loyalty and principles in a context of war and barbarism.
This detective novel with a historical backdrop, written by Ben Pastor, immerses the reader in a world of spies, crimes, and betrayals under the leaden sky of 1943. The plot is precisely constructed, and the character of Martin Bora stands out as a righteous man on the wrong side.
