In fact, the authoress had done some proper historical research, and definitely the better part of the novel's attraction 'emanates from its basis in the truth, and the sheer impossibility of tracking down that truth.'

The prominent role reconstruction of history plays in the novel, becomes already apparent in the fact that the better part of the plot is set nearly two decades after the events that are to be reconstructed, so that any occupation with the murders in the novel itself must be a retrospective one. Not one single narrator, but a 'plethora of voices' unfold the story in a multiperspective narrative situation. After having introduced the most influential recent theoretical concepts on the relationship of historical and literary writing, each narrative perspective is to be discussed in more detail in the following chapters to find out how they all work together in a kind of 'narrative patchwork.'
