Ist er - wie seine Freunde behaupten - der weltabgewandte, in einem Forschungsinstitut vor sich hin laborierende Biogenetiker Hoffmann, 35, ein \"Opfer des Polizeiterrors\"?

"An innocent man is inadvertently caught up in a police raid at a left wing youth centre and is shot in the head. When he regains consciousness in hospital, he has lost his memory and physical co-ordination. After a long physical and mental struggle he partially recovers the use of his faculties and his former identity as a biogeneticist. As he sets out to unravel the events around his shooting he finds he has become the victim of trumped-up charges of terrorism and murder laid by the police in an attempt to cover up their own mistake. Combining an ironic stance with elements of the political thriller and psychodrama genres, Hauff demonstrates how hysteria generated through the misuse of police power by the state around the issue of terrorism, can lead to a cycle of violence and counter-violence." . . . . . . .
