Forty-five-year-old Urs Blank is considered in professional circles one of the most knowledgeable lawyers. He achieved more than he dared to dream. He has everything: material well-being, fame, respect. However, a chance meeting at a flea market with a girl selling trinkets from India turns his whole life upside down, turning Urs Blanc into a different person. A man capable of rash acts and even crime. “The Dark Side of the Moon,” not inferior in intensity to an action-packed detective story, strengthened the fame of Martin Suter as one of the most talented contemporary writers in Europe.
