Story
In the shadow of Lewes castle lies buried an ancient tablet. Hours after discovering it, dashing local archaeologist Gideon Rivers is dead. Writer Virginia Woolf and her artist sister, Vanessa, both know firsthand that it doesn't take much to cause a stir in town. And when Gideon returned home from a dig in Syria with a glamourous Parisian heiress on his arm, all eyes were on him. But who would have conspired to murder such a charming young man? There are more suspects in his circle than it first seems: an ambitious fiancée, a jealous best friend, and a string of scorned former lovers.

Der erste Rand der großen Bettauer-Retrospektive. Der politisch visionäre Roman von Hugo Bettauer veranschaulicht das Sittenbild der 1920er Jahre und wirft brandaktuelle Fragen nach Schuld und Sühne in Krisenzeiten auf. Desillusioniert und völlig verarmt kehrt der ehemalige Freiherr Kolomann von Isbaregg aus dem verlorenen Ersten Weltkrieg zurück und findet sich in der gesellschaftlichen Neuordnung nicht mehr zurecht: Weder seine adelige Herkunft noch seine militärischen Leistungen für die untergegangene k. und k Monarchie Österreich-Ungarn, sind noch einen Deut wert.

A pochi giorni – non è un caso – dall'arrivo in città dell'imperatore Augusto. Accanto al corpo di Lepido, un messaggio oscuro.
