A great story of the good and evil that battle inside everyone. It's called his "novel of temptation" which is intriguing before you read the first page. A stranger arrives in a remote village and tests everyone who lives there. He brings a backpack full of gold and makes his offer. If the citizens commit murder, they get the gold. Manipulation, self reflection, and bargaining ensue. He deals with personal limits, morality, fear and regret. I chose it for my reading group so more people can get aquainted with his work.
