Dresden, summer 1948: While the reconstruction efforts in the city are progressing slowly, Max Heller finds himself dealing with the case of a dead fourteen-year-old in the dusty summer heat. The cause of death is completely unclear. Was he beaten to death by his war-traumatized father, or did he fail a rite of passage for a youth gang? No one seems to care about the boy's death. Heller encounters a wall of silence in his investigations and is confronted with his own personal nightmare. Unabridged reading by Heikko Deutschmann, 1 mp3-CD, approximately 10 hours and 30 minutes.
