Der Fremde am Strand

The narrative jumps between timelines, which kept me guessing but also made me curious about how the author planned this structure. Was it always part of the story?

The book balances mystery with emotional depth, which made me wonder how the author managed to keep that tone so consistent. Did the characters ever surprise the author as well?

The pacing felt just right, revealing clues at the perfect moments. I’m curious whether this was carefully plotted or evolved during the writing process.
