Dead Quiet in the Black Forest
When Clara Bergmann returns to Hinterwald to settle her aunt's estate, she expects grief, paperwork, and a quick exit. What she does not expect is a body on a forest trail, a town councilman with too many enemies, and the reawakening of the ability she has spent her life avoiding.
When Clara Bergmann returns to Hinterwald to settle her aunt's estate, she expects grief, paperwork, and a quick exit. What she does not expect is a body on a forest trail, a town councilman with too many enemies, and the reawakening of the ability she has spent her life avoiding.
Clara can hear lies. Not thoughts. Not motives. Just the precise moment truth fractures. In a village built on politeness, silence, and unspoken deals, that gift is dangerous.
As Clara digs through her aunt Liesl's notebooks, she realizes the murder is not about passion or rage, but about pressure applied patiently over years. Liesl knew it was coming. She chose not to stop it.
Now Clara must decide whether the truth should be exposed at all, and whether staying in Hinterwald will cost her the same way it cost her aunt.
A quiet, unsettling cozy mystery about power, inheritance, and the lies a town agrees to live with.
