The sides of Monster
- A brain surgeon who saved the wrong patient
- A manhunt across Germany
- Traces of a vanished East German program
Monster is good for you if…
- you like a doctor hunting the patient whose life he saved.
- you like dread that comes from conversation rather than action.
- you like dozens of lives that turn out to be connected.
Monster is bad for you if…
- you don't watch anime.
- over seventy episodes of patient investigation is more than you want to start.
