Bis du alles verlierst

The suspense built up beautifully, but I wonder if the pacing was influenced by the desire to keep readers guessing. Did the author plan this reveal from the start or let it evolve during writing?

The shift from familiarity to suspicion felt rapid at times, which heightened the tension. I’m curious if this was intentional to reflect real-life paranoia or just a storytelling choice.

The confined environment amplified the suspense, but I wonder what led to the decision to focus so heavily on the domestic space as a central element.
