The king is dead, long live the king

She managed to find out that the cause of that long-ago crime was a secret folder from the German intelligence archive. Soon after, the cameraman who worked with Lara was killed in the same unfortunate apartment... Someone wanted that folder so badly that they were ready to go to great lengths. But it fell into Lara's hands, and now it is up to her to decide: to destroy the document or make it public, to execute or to pardon...
