Die versunkenen Mädchen

The characters' complex motives and traumas really stood out to me. I'm curious whether this was based on real cases or entirely fictional choices.

I found myself wanting more intensity earlier on but appreciated how it led to a more impactful climax. What do others think about the story's rhythm?

The dark, rainy environment added to the suspense, but I wonder if the author drew from personal experiences or research for this backdrop.
