During a visit to a flea market, Florentine Huth's dream man suddenly appears before her. "Doe-Eyed," as she teasingly calls him, isn't having the way she wants. So Florentine hatches a plan that is as devious as it is ingenious: a kidnapping. Once "housed" in her cellar, the two inevitably grow closer. But something like "love" just doesn't seem to develop. What to do? Unexpectedly, a postman, a souvenir vendor, and the Beatles enter the picture, and Florentine pulls out all the stops. Henni Nachtsheim's debut novel, "All Kidnapping Is Difficult," astonishes with its mix of comedy, crime story, and musical novel. It not only tickles the funny bone but also keeps the nerves on edge: Will Florentine succeed in winning over her true love? biography Henni Nachtsheim, born in 1957, was the singer and saxophonist of the Rodgau Monotones until 1990. The band created the unofficial anthem of the state of Hesse with their song "Die Hesse komme" (The Hessians are coming). Together with Gert Knebel, he founded Badesalz in the mid-1980s, one of the most successful German comedy duos. Nachtsheim also performs solo and has written numerous books on Hessian topics and less important ones. New product
