Todesspiel: Die Nordseite des Herzens

The landscape and local culture add such a unique atmosphere — I'm curious whether the author drew from personal experience or extensive research.

The story's depth made me think about how our histories shape us — but I wondered if the emotional toll was intentionally layered or a bit overwhelming.

The blend of myth and contemporary crime added a rich layer to the story — did the author plan this from the start or develop it during writing?
