In 2019, Adrian Langenscheid's debut book, “True Crime Deutschland”, was published and rose from nowhere to the top of the winner's podium in the genre-relevant categories. Almost 2 years and 6 books later, Langenscheid is one of the best-known true crime authors in Germany.
For the seventh work in his successful series, the bestselling author once again researched some of the most spectacular German criminal cases of recent decades. The result is a breathtaking and deeply harrowing portrait of human abysses that arouse powerful emotions precisely because of its cool and factually neutral descriptions.
This gripping collection of accounts of murder, manslaughter, kidnapping, abuse, theft, and fraud will take you to the limits of what you can bear. They feature "people like you and me"; people whose lives no longer are what they were before due to tragic circumstances.
With expertise and excellent mental cinema, the expert on true crime, in collaboration with thriller author Benjamin Rickert, summarizes the most important findings from court hearings, files, psychological reports, interrogations, and investigation protocols in his eventful narratives.
Captivated, stunned, amazed, and moved to tears, you will question everything you thought you knew about human nature. True crime cases, true crimes, and thus the full force of reality hits you in ten detailed, familiar, and unfamiliar case histories!
