Summary
Leo Perutz: Doomsday Master
Pre-World War I Vienna: A mysterious series of murders shakes society. Is it suicide? Or murder? Almost ignored unimportant facts slowly thicken into a network of clues against the narrator's novelistic self, to whom, it seems, the moral code of his class leaves suicide as the only way out. A masterfully written insight into the abysses of Vienna before the last days of mankind.
