Het handwerk van de beul: Berlijn, 1938. Tijdens een zinderend hete zomer aan de vooravond van de Tweede Wereldoorlog werkt Bernie Gunther aan twee ... weduwe en die van hemzelf…

The setting feels so authentic, but I wonder what creative choices were made to keep the narrative engaging without sacrificing realism.

His actions often walk a fine line between right and wrong, which made me question my own judgments about justice in such a tense era.

It adds such a heavy layer of tension and moral ambiguity. I'm curious whether the author intended this setting to highlight broader themes about evil and complicity.
