...exceptionally promising young executive in a textile firm, and he marries the daughter of one of its owners. Then he sees a portrait of his wife's beautiful younger sister and hears the story of her apparent murder, eight years earlier, in a locked, private compartment of a Stuttgart-bound express.

As the young executive floats around in the revolving television tower at Stuttgart, with its lofty restaurant-lounge, he gives only occasional thought to die Flucht-the flight before the Russians 18 years ago-and other hideous memories of an early era. On Berlin's Kudamm, which Christopher Isherwood would never recognize, Germans twist-and twist and twist-though they live skin-close to the Communists. In Hamburg, Max Schmeling...
