Civikov ventures into perhaps the hottest topic of post-war European history with this book. The investigation of the mass murders in Srebrenica, meticulously researched, reads like a crime novel. Step by step, he reveals how the tribunal has so far managed to have the allegedly most brutal crime in Europe after 1945 defined by a single crown witness. The credibility of the Yugoslav Tribunal is fundamentally shaken after reading this book. Misconduct and manipulations of a thoroughly political process come to light openly.
