Die Vereinigung jiddischer Polizisten

A word wizard, a player in all genres, one who knows how to tell a good story – The World.

Meyer Landsman from the homicide department has problems. His marriage is over, he drinks, and he’s also stuck in a professional dead end: A murder has been committed in the cheap hotel where he lives. The victim is a former chess prodigy, and Landsman begins the investigation. But when orders come down from the top to close the case immediately, Landsman, along with his partner, investigates on his own and gets deeply involved in a world where political goals and religious fanaticism form a dangerous alliance.
