Schatz, former SS now police officer in 1960s Germany, is haunted by the ghost of a Jewish comedian he murdered. Cohn is his conscience and constant companion. Schatz has to solve crimes committed by a serial killer and that‘s when the story becomes insane and obscene. It‘s hard to describe this book because it is so weird, but also brilliant and even funny. The humor is cruel and savage. I‘ve never read anything like it.

Gissy Sounds interesting. Never heard of it. Let‘s try it🤗 2y
Anna40 @Gissy let me know what you think if you read it 2y
Gissy @Anna40 Trying to find a copy but they are a little expensive. I think is out of print. I will try Amazon second hand vendors. I like to read physical books. 2y
