Death is a Hesse. Commissioner Henning Bröhmann has never really loved his job and is quite fed up: with the province, his colleagues, and his dictatorial father. One day, he travels to Berlin with his father for the funeral of an old colleague of Bröhmann senior. But something unexpected and terrible happens in the capital. A violent death. No, two. And shortly thereafter, the father disappears. Henning investigates and uncovers an unpleasant story. Decades ago, when the old man was still in control, a man disappeared behind bars and swore revenge. Now, people are dying in the present. And dogs! The third volume of the successful Bröhmann series.
