Urs Gipser, the Minister of Defence, reads the message and immediately ends his hike. He rushes to the Turrenhuis, in front of which a helicopter is landing. What is happening right now? Is Switzerland being attacked by a foreign power? Politicians, the media and the civilian intelligence service assume an Islamist attack. Colonel König from the military intelligence service and his Dutch friend Hendrik, known from "STEINGLETSCHER", follow their own trail. But then the suspected perpetrators are kidnapped
On 2 November 1992 at 4.13 p.m., the earth shook at the Susten Pass in the Bernese Oberland. More than 800 tonnes of ammunition and explosives blew up in a cavern near the Steingletscher glacier. The detonation destroyed the cavern, the entrance area and the ammunition blasting site, leaving behind a huge debris field. Six people were killed. What was the cause? Inspired by two actual events - the arrest of a senior Swiss military officer in August 1976 (Part I) and the explosion at the Steingletscher in November 1992 (Part II) - the author, together with his two heroes, a Swiss intelligence officer and his Dutch friend, develops a breathtaking story in which everything is fictitious.
