Bestselling author Daniel Glattauer gives a voice to those who are voiceless in his new novel – a portrayal of our privileged society.

The Binders and the Strobl-Marineks indulge in an exclusive vacation in Tuscany. Their 14-year-old daughter Sophie Luise is allowed to bring her school friend Aayana, a refugee child from Somalia, to stave off boredom. Just as they settle into holiday mode with Prosecco and antipasti, disaster strikes. What is a human life worth? Is every life valued equally? Daniel Glattauer tackles profound questions in his new novel, which is impossible to put down, showcasing all his skills: thrilling scenes, strong dialogues, and wit. In doing so, Glattauer paints a picture of our privileged society, exposing its double standards and lending his voice to those who are far too rarely heard.
