Pre-Christmas atmosphere in Frankfurt, but no time for reflection for Commissioner Jenny Becker and her team. They are kept on their toes by three crimes: a brutally abused girl in the Main River, who seems to be unknown to anyone; a poisoned Santa Claus at the police headquarters; and a wealthy young man found dead in the bushes. The investigations prove to be challenging, and soon there are more questions than answers. It's not helpful that Jenny's love life is experiencing a rollercoaster ride at this very moment. Only when the police officers realize how all three cases are interconnected does the veil begin to lift. With "Arsen und Apfelwein," Andrea Habeney continues her successful series featuring Jenny Becker and her investigative team, published for the first time by Conte Verlag. A must-read not only for Frankfurt residents but also for fans of police novels.
