The silent poison

A part of an artificial hip, shot out of a manure barrel like a projectile, flies past the ears of two tourists and triggers the search for a long-missing man. Irmi Mangold and Kathi Reindl uncover to whom the hip belonged. The farmer's story is a nightmare. First, his disabled son dies, then all his cows perish from a mysterious illness, and finally, there is no sign of life from him either. Everything points to a poisoning scandal that produces more lies and suspects than cow dung in the Garmisch region. About the series: Since 2009, Irmi Mangold and Kathi Reindl have been on the trail in the foothills of the Alps and the mountains. Author Nicola Förg, a native of Upper Allgäu and a journalist, is well-acquainted with the area and has already had her detective duo investigate various thrilling cases.
