Under the drudge

A deadly secret, a murdered widow, and Kreuthner's tumultuous past: Part 9 of Andreas Föhr's humorous Bavarian crime series featuring Wallner & Kreuthner from the Miesbach police.

Police Chief Leonhardt Kreuthner has come up with something very special to impress a highly attractive new colleague: a nighttime break-in complete with a shooting, from which Kreuthner will heroically rescue the newcomer. Of course, the whole thing is supposed to be staged. However, the remote farm he has chosen for his show happens to be the scene of a real crime that very night. Instead of blank cartridges, real bullets suddenly fly around the police chief's ears. And then there’s a corpse in the freezer.

The deceased, Carmen Skriba, is no stranger to Commissioner Clemens Wallner: two years ago, she was a witness in the murder case of her husband. Wallner had already sensed that something was off back then. Could it really be a coincidence that the widow has now also been murdered? And what does Kreuthner's biological father have to do with the Skribas?

The crime series from Bavaria by bestselling author Andreas Föhr captivates with intelligent cases, dark humor, and typical Bavarian local color.
