The Rector Of Veilbye by Steen Steensen Blicher

En kriminalhistorie

In a 17th-century Jutland village, a district judge engaged to a pastor’s daughter investigates the disappearance of a volatile farmhand, and mounting circumstantial evidence coupled with the pastor’s austere demeanor leads to a conviction. Years later, a shocking revelation exposes a devastating miscarriage of justice, and the narrator’s retrospective account becomes a stark meditation on conscience, doubt, and the peril of trusting appearances.
