Brand:Todesstrich

Three people, three worlds: Lisa Kunz is the new head of the Life and Limb Division of the Bern Cantonal Police, the department that deals with the worst crimes of all: manslaughter and rape, premeditated murder and cold-blooded murder. Even as a child, she preferred playing detective to playing with dolls and thought she had achieved her dreams. Renate Berger believed that perhaps she could still make it, that the birth of her daughter would mark the beginning of a new life, a life without drugs. But the addiction is stronger. Bruno Bärtschi is a man from the country, small in stature, rough chequered shirt, heavy shoes, hands like paws. He is the middle of nine children and the only one who has stayed with his mother on his parents' farm and sleeps in the room where he has slept his whole life. Three stories that inexorably converge and become irretrievably intertwined when a prostitute from the Bernese drug scene disappears without a trace.
