Publisher's Synopsis
A group of friends ponder the question of whether it is morally justifiable to murder a person who could be responsible for atrocities in later life; if one could travel back in time, would one murder the young Adolf Hitler? One evening, an unexpected visitor sparks them into taking action. Soon, the friends are offering poisoned wine to any dinner guest who strikes them as morally or politically dubious. Initially killing in the belief that they are safeguarding the future, events soon get out of hand.
