Der Geheimagent. Eine Einfache Geschichte by Joseph Conrad
A Simple Tale
In turn-of-the-century London, a complacent secret agent who double-deals between a foreign legation and a circle of anarchists helps engineer a public act of terror that disastrously kills his simple-minded brother-in-law; the tragedy unravels his household when the betrayed wife learns of his betrayal and kills him, leaving a bleak meditation on political manipulation, moral culpability, and the human cost of conspiracies.
