Ein Krimi, der mich mäßig gefesselt hat. Stellenweise gut, und dann leider auch wieder langatmig und nicht wirklich interessant. Zum Teil auch verworren, und die Protagonisten blieben mir eher fern. Die Kommissarin hat selbst noch einen schlimmen Schicksalsschlag zu verarbeiten, und irgendwie war mir das alles ein bisschen zu viel.
Ich glaube nicht, dass ich diese Buchreihe weiterverfolgen werde.

Solide, fällt mir am ehesten zu diesem Krimi ein. Handwerklich nicht schlecht, ein interessanter Fall mit spannenden Momenten, aber letztlich eben nichts Herausragendes, was lange im Gedächtnis bleibt.

It is the first volume of the Lena Larcher series, which has not yet convinced me 100%.
As a young man he became a murderer. For 26 years he lives undiscovered as a respected member of society, as a husband and family man. But then the past catches up with him: A prostitute is found dead in Cologne, murdered according to "his" pattern from back then. This time he is innocent, but an unscrupulous blackmailer swears revenge. And the countdown is on. For Inspector Lena Larcher, this is a case that pushes her to her professional and personal limits. For she, too, is battling ghosts of the past. Her husband and son were killed in an accident in which she was driving. Is she to blame for the death of her family? Her relationship with her father, a retired inspector, is also strained, and her work partner is also in deep personal trouble. The current case resembles an unsolved case of her father. Can she solve both cases in the end?
What didn't really convince me about this story was that I had the feeling very early on that I knew the solution to the case. What I found exciting was the way the author described the characters, their joys, their sorrows and their quirks.
