Prolog zum 10. Krimifestival Erfurt - Klaus-Peter Wolf: Ein mörderisches Paar. Der Sturz

In the organizer's words:

Dr. Bernhard Sommerfeldt is back where he was at the very beginning: on the run! Hunted by the police, the BKA, several professional killers and gangster bosses. After the atmospheric wedding on the beach, Frauke had rather imagined her honeymoon in a luxury hotel with lots of champagne. But her husband's pursuers have thoroughly thwarted her plans. Now it's time to flee, get some money and get out of East Frisia, which is now teeming with professional killers. But even in this precarious situation, Sommerfeldt proves once again why some people fear him so much. Because he has a plan B, and that is to go underground, relax while playing golf and then strike back.

"A murderous couple. The Fall" is the thrilling finale of the trilogy featuring a charismatic Dr. Bernhard Sommerfeldt and his wife Frauke. You can also read the two previous volumes: "A murderous couple. The Promise' and 'A Murderous Couple. The Suspicion".

Klaus-Peter Wolf, born in Gelsenkirchen in 1954, lives as a freelance writer in the East Frisian town of Norden, in the same neighborhood as his detective Ann Kathrin Klaasen. Like her, he moved to the coast after many years in the Ruhr area, the Westerwald and Cologne and became an East Frisian by choice. His books and films have won numerous awards. To date, his books have been translated into 26 languages and over fifteen million copies have been sold. More than 60 of his screenplays have been made into films, including many for "Tatort" and "Polizeiruf 110". The author is a member of the PEN Center Germany.

Admission €15, tickets at the Peterknecht bookshop and at www.peterknecht.de
