The child

Psychological thriller

Defense attorney Robert Stern is stunned when he sees who the mysterious client is that he's supposed to meet at a remote and run-down industrial site: Simon, a ten-year-old boy, fragile, terminally ill – and firmly convinced that he was a murderer in a past life. But Robert Stern's astonishment turns to horror and confusion when he actually finds human remains in the cellar Simon described: a skeleton, the skull split with an axe. Robert doesn't yet suspect that from now on, death will be his constant companion...
