The quiet twin / Dan Vyleta.

Vyleta, Dan. (Author).

Summary:

"Set in Nazi-occupied Vienna, a time of political paranoia and suspicion. A string of unsolved murders in an apartment building has thrown the occupants into a state of uneasy watchfulness. Doctor Anton Beer has his own reasons for keeping his private life hidden from public scrutiny: he has smuggled a paralyzed and deathly ill woman into his apartment to nurse her in secret. The mystery at the heart of this novel is the temper of a diseased society in which every person's actions are infected by the possibility of evil."--Publisher.
