Evil pushes every boundary – the fourth volume in the SPIEGEL bestseller series about the German-Austrian investigative team Alexa Jahn and Bernhard Krammer

Chief inspector Bernhard Krammer stands shocked in his colleague Roza Szabo’s apartment in Innsbruck. In her living room lies a male corpse with a diving mask, but there is no trace of Roza herself. What happened? Why didn't she alert her colleagues instead of just disappearing off the face of the earth? When it is clear that Roza was last seen at Walchensee, Krammer asks Chief Inspector Alexa Jahn from Weilheim’s investigative team for help. But Roza's trail is lost at the lake. As the investigation quickly stalls, one thing becomes clear: someone is after Roza. And if Alexa and Krammer can't track her down in time, she'll pay with her life.

“This Across Borders series can definitely be addicting!” SR 3, Ulli Wagner

Anna Schneider

Ever since she was a child, Anna Schneider has loved stories. In her grandmother's inn, she listened spellbound to the tales told by the guests, especially when they were full of suspense. This fascination was later reflected in her careers. As a personnel consultant and coach, she experienced on a daily basis what makes people tick, what drives them, and where their inner conflicts lie. As an author, she is interested in perfidious crimes, subtle nuances, and what remains hidden. Her stories begin where the façade crumbles. Always starting with the question: How well do we really know the people closest to us? All volumes of her “Across Borders” series about the unlikely investigative duo Alexa Jahn and Bernhard Krammer are SPIEGEL bestsellers, and “Blood for Blood” is her first psychological page-turner. Anna Schneider lives with her family near Munich.
