Tide, ebb and flow, love, poetry, and death. A North Sea crime novel. November in Cuxhaven. Rita Sieversen seeks distance from her troubled relationship and discovers a corpse, right at Galgenberg, where pirates were once executed. Are the poems of Barthold Heinrich Brockes a key to this murder? Can the mudflat guide be trusted? Or the sister of the deceased? What does the strange fellow, who interprets the flight of birds, know? Does the Ritzebüttel Castle hold the solution? Or perhaps Duhnen, the island of Neuwerk? And how will Rita Sieversen decide, for whom suddenly three people are vying for her love? The successful North Sea crime novel now available from CW Niemeyer.
