The trial of a man. The story of a nation. The origins of horror. After the end of the Second World War, Germany undergoes a process of denazification. During the Nuremberg Trials, international investigators bring proceedings to determine the criminal responsibility of numerous collaborators of the Nazi regime. Among them is the Professor, one of the most eminent jurists of his time, who took part in drafting the laws that proved essential to the dismantling of the democratic Weimar Republic and the establishment of National Socialism. Subjected to a relentless interrogation, he is forced to revisit his life and, at the same time, the history of Germany from the end of the Great War to Hitler's defeat -- a period of which he was a privileged witness. The Professor's testimony becomes a gripping novel that captures the reader from the very first page and guides them through a harrowing account. A true descent into the darkest depths of human nature, this fictionalized chronicle portrays the turbulent Germany that lay between defeat in the Great War and the fall of Nazism.
