Description

A Small Death in Lisbon by Robert Wilson is a gripping thriller that delves into the dark history of Portugal during World War II. In 1941, a young girl's murder sets off a chain of events that exposes the sinister underbelly of wartime Lisbon. As the story unfolds, two seemingly unrelated investigations converge on the city. One takes place in the late 1990s, where Inspector Ze Coelho is tasked with solving the murder of a young woman with a troubled past. The other is set in the midst of war, where Klaus Felsen, an SS officer, navigates the treacherous landscape of Nazi-occupied Portugal. As Ze digs deeper into the case, he uncovers a web of deceit and corruption that stretches back decades. With the 1974 revolution still fresh in the nation's memory, Ze must confront the darker aspects of Lisbon's past and face formidable opposition in his quest for the truth.
