Description

A string of shocking murders—beginning with the killing of District Attorney Varga—throws an indeterminate country into a spiral of fear and suspicion. As detective Rogas investigates, he finds the crimes point toward a hidden pattern shaped by power, corruption, and the shadowy reach of organized interests. With a taut, noir-leaning pace, the novel explores how justice can be manipulated when politics and the Mafia operate in tandem, turning public institutions into battlegrounds. Equal Danger blends Leonardo Sciascia’s sharp, socially observant storytelling with Adrienne Foulke’s accessible translation, delivering a compact but unsettling study of complicity, moral ambiguity, and the unequal risks people take in the pursuit of truth.
