Thank you Billi, for reminding me of German literature. This made me think of the excellent Swiss writer Friedrich Dürrenmatt who wrote the classical philosophical 'krimi' Der Richter und sein Henker (The judge and his hangman).
(I found this while living in Switzerland.)
That would be a book both the literary bookclub and MR-bookclub would enjoy, I'm almost sure of it. It is one of my favorite German-writing autors.
