One cannot simply die when things are still unresolved. This is what Katharina thinks since she recently discovered something in her chest. No one knows about it, and that's for the best. Because this weekend, everything is supposed to be just like always, one last time. And so, the chaos of a completely normal Friday unfolds before her. However, as she tends to a severed thumb, extinguishes her burning dryer, and prepares for the emotionally charged visit of a college friend, her resolve begins to crumble, and she faces big questions: Has everything turned out the way she wanted? Her music, her children, her marriage to the increasingly absent Costas? As the day nears its end, she decides to finally share her secret with someone she loves. The heroine in Mareike Krüger's fast-paced, clever novel is undoubtedly one of the most captivating.
