Berlin, 1927. When a studio executive at Ufa -- the home of German
Cinema -- is found dead in his office bathtub, Herr
Kriminal-Oberkommissar Nikolai Hoffner is determined to uncover the
truth behind what he firmly believes is murder. With the help of
Fritz Lang and Alby Pimm, the leader of the most powerful crime
syndicate in Berlin, Hoffner finds his case taking him beyond the
world of film and into the far more treacherous landscape of
Berlin's sex and drug trade, the rise of Hitler's Brownshirts, and
the even more astonishing attempts by onetime monarchists to rearm
a post-Versailles Germany. "Shadow and Light" is an electrifying
thriller set in a darkly beautiful Berlin poised on the edge of
destruction.
