Der Wortschatz des Todes

Reading and discussion with Martin von Arndt

Moderator: Silke Arning | Irina Starilenko, a former BKA case investigator of Russian origin, is asked by her brother Konstantin to help his friend Oleksandr. Oleksandr, who fled from Ukraine to Germany to escape the Russian war of aggression, is accused of murdering a Polish businessman. He is innocent, however, as he and Konstantin carried out an arson attack on a house belonging to the Identitarian movement at the time of the crime. But Konstantin cannot testify on Oleksandr's behalf because otherwise his parole would be revoked and he would go to prison for years. After a brief hesitation, Irina agrees to go in search of the real perpetrator and soon realizes that she is up against some very dark forces
