Description
Afra Zauner's life was forever changed by a tragic event in 1947. Returning to her family's cottage on the edge of Mauther Forest, she faced a community that shunned her due to her circumstances. Years later, a traveller stumbles into a local tavern, recounting a murder left unsolved and sparking a re-examination of the past. As the file is reopened, a chilling realisation emerges: no one ever atoned for Afra's death. Her story has been waiting to be told, and Andrea Maria Schenkel masterfully weaves together the narratives of suspects, victims, and investigators to lead readers to their own terrible understanding. Through this gripping tale, Schenkel once again proves her skill in crafting complex, thought-provoking stories that linger long after the final page is turned.
