Under den tyska ockupationen av Nederländerna dras tobaksägaren Henri Osewoudt med i motståndsrörelsen. Han rekryteras av den handlingskraftige Dorbeck och ges farliga uppdrag som han utför utan att tveka. Han framkallar illegala mörkrumsfilmer, samarbetar med brittiska spioner och likviderar oönskade motståndare. Han grips av tyskarna, flyr, fångas igen – det blir allt svårare för honom att orientera sig i tillvaron. Han har själv flera namn. Vilket är hans riktiga?

Mörkrummet är en storartad roman om andra världskriget skriven med spionthrillerns alla klassiska ingredienser. Boken upphäver gränserna mellan verklighet och mardröm och utmanar läsarens egen moral och verklighetsuppfattning.

WILLEM FREDERIK HERMANS (1921–1995) räknas som en av efterkrigstidens främsta nederländska författare. Han tog starkt intryck av krigsåren och den tyska ockupationen vilket han skildrar i flera av sina böcker. Mörkrummet räknas som en av hans främsta romaner och har på senare år återupptäckts och utkommit i nya upplagor på flera språk.

A partisan fighting with the Red Army in Germany comes across a grand, abandoned house, seemingly untouched by the devastation sweeping the country. Exhausted, he falls asleep in the living room, but wakes to find a German patrol marching up the garden path. His only hope is to pose as the house's owner, but how will he keep up the pretence when the real owner returns?Dazzling, dark and scorchingly violent, with the breakneck pace of a thriller, this timeless classic is a vivid depiction of what happens when the mask of decency is cast aside in the savagery of war.

During the German occupation of Holland, tobacconist Henri Osewoudt finds himself drawn into the resistance when he is visited by the ruthless Dorbeck, who also happens to look remarkably like him. Soon Osewoudt is carrying out dangerous missions, helping British agents and killing collaborators with aplomb. But after the war, he is taken for a collaborator himself. How can he prove that he was on the right side - and how much of what he remembers is real?The Darkroom of Damocles is a razor-sharp thriller set in a world where everything is permitted, even murder. As unsettling and morally challenging today as when it was first written.
