District Attorney Varga is shot dead while picking a sprig of
jasmine. Then Judge Sanza is killed. Then Judge Azar. Is this
string of murders an individual vendetta or a more sinister plot?
The charming Inspector Rogas is determined to find out. The pursuit
of truth and justice are Rogas's vocation, but his work is
frustrated by a system which defies his understanding. He needs a
key, a way in, a map, and he is sure that his chief suspect Cres
can provide it... The book, written in 1971, uncannily prefigures
the Red Brigade's subsequent killing of magistrates and the
Catholic-Communist pact of the late 1970s in Italy. Developed under
Sciascia's hand in the spirit of a parody, Equal Danger has come to
be regarded as a wide-ranging political thriller, one of the
masterpieces of the genre.
