Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Cressida and Julian Field live comfortably in the English countryside with their elderly Ukrainian odd-job man and friend of the family, Romka. Suddenly, the police arrive. What has Romka done? Is he guilty? Is there a time limit on revenge and punishment? The Handyman looks at questions surrounding culpability, retribution, universal responsibility and the possibility of evil.
