Product Description WWII rages brutally across the oceans, and the city previously known as Berlin in Canada is shaken by a series of murders that seem to indicate a racial and political vendetta by a communist killer.Decades later, a seemingly harmless diary comes to light, revealing the true nature of the tragedy and the profound pain that prompted the real murderer to avenge the forgotten victims of the war.The hymns of allegiance of the killer elicit intensely conflicting feelings in the mind of the accidental reader, and yet, a firm devotion to correct the evils of war and sexism is instilled in his brain and in his conscience. Review ...a ghastly confession of brutal crimes, mostly committed during the WorldWar II era.Author Karmel Arbelaitz has an excellent command of the English language; thenarrator's vocabulary in his philosophical contemplations is sometimes esoteric. More importantly, Arbelaitz has crafted an intriguing storyline. And, just when the plotline appears to be winding down, there's a final twist that shakes up everything, but makes perfect sense given the subtle cues provided.With its haunting, 19 th century quality reminiscent of Edgar Allan Poe, this book is wellworth a read. BLUE INK REVIEW
