Uncompromising and shocking, told by bestselling author Peter Beutler.

In 1965, a brutal murder occurs in the otherwise quiet Emmental. The respected factory owner Balthasar Haller is found in the courtyard of Trachselwald Castle with his throat slit. The only clue: the murder weapon, a Swiss Army knife. The investigations go in circles until prosecutor Ronald Weber digs deeper into Haller's past and uncovers a dehumanizing scandal.
