Diese erste Kriminalgeschichte der deutschen Literatur erfüllt sicher nicht die Anforderungen, die man etwa an Agatha Christie stellt. Dafür beruht sie auf Tatsachen: Das Leben des Sonnenwirts Friedrich Schwan und seine Hinrichtung sind der Stoff, aus dem Schiller eine psychologische und soziologische Analyse entwickelt. Verstehen will er den Täter und den Gründen seiner Handlungsweise nachspüren. Damit nimmt er gegenüber dem Verbrecher eine durchaus moderne Haltung ein, ohne daß das auf Kosten einer spannenden Handlung geht.
Being the first traditional `crime story' in the history of German literature, “Der Verbrecher aus verlorener Ehe” (The Criminal of Lost Honour) does not meet the expectations we have of Agatha Christie novels. However, it is based on real events: The life and death of the innkeeper Friedrich Schwan are the subject of Schiller's psychological and sociological analysis. Schiller tries to understand the culprit and the reasons for his actions, thereby taking up a quite modern perspective on the criminal without sacrificing the plot's suspense.
