What you need to know before your trail

Twelve years ago, Linda’s sister Anna was murdered. Her killer was never caught, but Linda saw him. Now, all these years on, she’s just seen him again. On TV.

He has since become a well-known reporter, and Linda – a famous novelist and infamous recluse – knows no one will believe her if she accuses him, so she does the only thing she can think of: she writes a thriller about a woman who is murdered, her killer never caught. When the book is published, she agrees to give just one media interview. At home. To the one person who knows more about the case than she does.

He knows what happened that night and she wrote a book about it but, when the doorbell rings, neither of them can be sure how the story will end.

Munich

Munich is the landscape of the novel but although is the back drop it doesn’t play a huge role in the novel.

It’s the city where her sister is found murdered inside her city flat and where the narrator has been holed up in her own flat since the tragedy took place. A  man who worked at the local news station might have the answers to what could have happen.

The novel about her sister’s murder and the events which unfold provides the most unique setting of all
