the Shadow Register: Commissioner Stöckli and networks of power: 19

The thriller that shakes the foundations of the Federal Parliament When corruption reaches the highest echelons of power and the law becomes secondary, only one man can help: Commissioner Thomi Stöckli. With his rumpled trench coat, sharp nose for clues, and his trusty Jaguar V8, the Basel investigator disregards diplomatic immunity. What began in the misty vineyards of Bettingen with a few bags of black money leads him via Zurich's private banks on Paradeplatz directly into the cauldron of the Federal Parliament in Bern. At the heart of power, he stumbles upon a dark secret: the shadow register. Million-dollar arms deals, hidden accounts in Liechtenstein, and names that were never meant to see the light of day. When the Federal Criminal Police Office, in the name of "reasons of state," wants to make the files disappear forever, Stöckli chooses the only weapon left: the public spotlight.
