A Notice of Extraordinary Circumstance
The author of The Black Captain is presently the subject of an investigation by the German Federal Police. He is continuously subjected to highly distressing circumstances, profoundly impeding his ability to concentrate upon his literary pursuits or other professional endeavours. He stands accused of offences he did not commit. Consequently, this publication shall not be updated with its customary regularity, as he finds himself a captive of the German authorities, though he is not of German nationality himself.
