Silent Cries: Northern Shores Cozy Mystery
Murder in the A new mystery series where dark secrets lurk beneath the surface, with a dash of humor to keep things afloat.
A gruesome murder is committed in a meadow behind the dyke. However, the victim is not human but a sheep belonging to the recently deceased farmer Dietrichsen. It has been badly mauled. Enna and Pavel are deeply unsettled, knowing that someone capable of such cruelty towards an animal might not hesitate to turn their brutality on humans.
Then, the long-awaited toxicology report on Dietrichsen arrives, revealing a shocking the farmer had poison in his blood. Could the same person be responsible for both the poison and the mutilation? And if so, who would do such a thing? His estranged daughter? The family doctor? Or perhaps the ambitious journalist from Hamburg, desperate to buy the land for his own reasons?
As they dig deeper, a dark shadow falls over the the abandoned Schepker farm, long whispered to be cursed, its history riddled with tales of pacts with the devil. What secrets does it hold, and how does it tie into the growing web of mystery?
It’s a puzzle par excellence, but Enna and Pavel are running out of time to solve it.

An absolutely perfect mystery to read on the eve of a very tense election in the US. I finished the first book last week and couldn’t wait to read the second. Now I can’t wait for the third.
I have traveled to Germany but have never been in Hamburg, Bremen or the shores of the North Sea. I feel a connection to the characters Ms. Hinrichs has created and enjoy spending time with them. It’s like traveling without leaving home.
I recommend these books without reservation. I hope the author continues to write.
