The eighth volume of the Eifel series. Who chased the Bundestag member Jakob Driesch to his death through the night streets of Monschau? Why was the lively Annette von Hülsdonk shot off her horse? The murder investigation is groping in the fog. Do the murders have anything to do with the gigantic wind power project in Hollerath? However, every lead that journalist Siggi Baumeister, retired criminal councilor Rodenstock, and his wife Emma pursue seems to lead to a dead end.
