Poisonous secrets in Upper Austria! In the humorously quirky crime novel "Peace on the Summit," Colonel Benedikt Kordesch from Vienna investigates for the second time—with an eye for the seemingly insignificant and a heart of gold. Normally, he makes the headlines—now he's in danger of becoming one himself: Bernhard Kolin is dead, billionaire and publisher of Austria's largest tabloid newspaper. Because politicians are on good terms with the Kolins, Colonel Benedikt Kordesch needs to exercise the utmost discretion. But just one day later, Kolin's mother also dies. Like her son, she was poisoned by monkshood. Kordesch immediately travels to Upper Austria, where the entire family of the murdered media mogul is spending the Pentecost holidays, as they do every year. There are indeed a lot of dirty secrets. And a hotel guest who has a score to settle with the Kolins. But something tells Colonel Kordesch that solving the case is far more complicated... Original cases and typical Austrian humor: the crime series for everyone who likes things a little more subtle and quirky. Austrian Book Prize winner Daniel Wisser, aka Simon Ammer, offers the perfect holiday reading for fans of Thomas Raab or Wolf Haas in his crime novels, which feature dry humor and stunning landscapes. The endearingly eccentric Colonel Kordesch solves his first case in the Austrian crime novel 'Paradise Was More Beautiful Before'. New product
