The Greatest Debt: A story of broken promises.

Michel Cents

I'm a philosopher and novelist from the Netherlands.

It’s Sunday the 14th of October, 1888, and in the city of Vienna, where the value of one’s bank account is more important than that of a human life, something doesn’t seem to add up… Such is the case for the failed psychologist Gottfried Todenhöfer, the gifted philosopher Carolina Romanova, the world-weary mercenary Rocco Romano, and the colorful musician Vincent Fontaine, who all become the unwilling participants to the scheme of the century. As the lives of these seemingly unrelated people are woven together, they discover a powerful secret that has been set in motion by a most mysterious, clandestine regime. For reasons of their own, Gottfried, Carolina, Rocco and Vincent dig deeper into the case and happen upon evidence surrounding far-reaching monetary reforms. All their lives, however, take a violent turn when they find out a deeper phenomenon is at play, a way of pulling the strings that not only forms the basis of the regime’s power but hits the very essence of morality, affecting every aspect of Viennese life. A secret so well beholden, the regime is willing to murder for it. Amidst plots and counterplots, tragedy, deceit, betrayal, revenge, guilt, bad conscience, and deep internal divisions, the fate of Gottfried, Carolina, Rocco, and Vincent hang in the balance of paying off the greatest debt. Forced to re-evaluate the very foundation of their moral understanding, they have to do the thing they are most reluctant in doing: to wage an all-out war against this regime, possibly at the cost of their own.
