Norway, present day. The writer's family gathers at the bronze "stumbling block" in front of the house of their ancestor, Hirsch Komissar. He was sent to a concentration camp by denunciation and died there. In the same city, not far from the stone, in a quiet prestigious neighborhood stands a beautiful villa. During the war here was the headquarters of that very Henri Rinnan - a secret agent of the Gestapo, guilty of many atrocities. But for the descendants of the Commissioner, this house is not a foreign place either. Is this really possible?
"Lexicon of light and darkness" - an attempt to reconstruct the history of the family during the war years on the basis of authentic testimonies and archival documents. The novel has been translated into more than 20 languages and was awarded Norway's main national prize.
