A dark valley, long shadows, and a well-kept secret: Following 'In Blue-Cold Depths' and 'Underwater Night,' the new psychological thriller by Kristina Hauff. Nestled in the heart of the Black Forest lies the Hotel 'Zum alten Forsthaus,' a building that has long since seen better days. Few guests venture into the increasingly dilapidated establishment. It is all the more surprising, then, when Daniela, a seemingly vulnerable stranger, takes up permanent residence. Lisa, the owner's adult daughter, takes her under her wing. While Daniela blossoms and quickly integrates into the village community, Lisa's closest confidants turn away—even her husband eventually does. As autumn arrives, the days grow colder, and the shadows in the green valley deepen, Lisa begins to suspect that her world is on the verge of unraveling. New product
