Rattenflut

Hard, harder - Hallstein! Case 3 for the LKA Berlin detective: For the third installment of his thriller series, true-crime author Andreas Gößling has adapted Britain's biggest abuse scandal and relocated it to present-day Berlin and a godforsaken Indonesian island. Officially, Kira Hallstein is on leave from the Berlin LKA for health reasons after the events in "Drosselbrut" - unofficially, she works under a new identity for a secret special unit of Europol. Her task: to do whatever is necessary to finally bring down "The Brotherhood", which is responsible for the abduction, enslavement, torture and abuse of children and young people worldwide. A renowned children's cancer clinic in Berlin seems to be part of the Brotherhood's worldwide network, and Kira has managed to make contact with one of the nurses there. But before she can learn anything useful from him, the young man is brutally murdered in a fake robbery ... It was only after the death of BBC show host Jimmy Savile in 2011 that it came to light that Savile had abused hundreds of children and young people for decades in hospitals and hospices to which he had unrestricted access as a patron and fundraiser. Andreas Gößling adapts Britain's biggest abuse scandal into a true-crime thriller that gets under your skin in "Rattenflut". The true-crime thrillers in the series with Inspector Kira Hallstein have been published in the following order: - "Wolfswut" - "Drosselbrut" - "Rattenflut".
