A Leopold von Herzfeldt Case

Pötzsch O: The Girl and the Gravedigger
/ LF

The Girl and the Gravedigger

From the&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author of&nbsp;The Hangman's Daughter, a brand-new mystery series, following a gravedigger and young inspector on the heels of a serial killer in turn of the century Vienna, during the advent of modern criminology,

The New York Times bestselling author of The Hangman's Daughter returns with the first volume in a brand-new mystery series which introduces a gravedigger and young inspector who must stop a serial killer in fin de siecle Vienna—the period during which modern criminology was born.Vienna, 1893. A gravedigger at the city’s famous Central Cemetery, Augustin Rothmayer is an unorthodox yet highly educated oddball who finds solace amongst the dead as well as in the writing the pages of&nbsp;the first almanac of his profession. But his fragile peace is abruptly disturbed when young inspector Leopold von Herzfeldt, an ambitious young&nbsp;transfer from Graz, arrives in need of help from someone expert in death. No one knows the subject better than Augustin Rothmeyer.A superstitious killer is on the loose. His victims include several maids, each brutally staked. Recognizing the killer is using an ancient ritual for keeping the undead buried, the gravedigger joins the inspector on a journey that will take them deep into the underworld of their glamorous cosmopolitan city. In their search for a depraved monster, they receive unexpected help from telephone operator Julia Wolf, who impresses them with her unusual insight even as she fights her own personal demons.Oliver Pötzsch’s inventive historical crime series delivers the thrills and historical detail modern international mystery fans crave: a grippingly plotted mystery, a rich and painstakingly researched setting, a fascinating look into the beginnings of modern criminology, and an unlikely and unforgettable trio of characters.

The Mafia Academy Series

"A forbidden love dark romance set at a mafia boarding school for the sons and daughters of the most powerful mafia lords. Aria Costa: The first time I saw Gabriele Vitale, some dark yearning deep inside me called to him and no matter what I did, I couldn't stop wanting him. He's made it clear that he wants nothing to do with me. But sometimes there's a flicker of interest in his eye, and it's enough to make me know he's lying. When a stupid decision on my part throws us together, I get a first-hand view of the darkness he alludes to. One part of me is drawn to it. Another part of me is frightened by it. But not enough to stop from getting to know him better. He's like a black hole, slowly sucking me in. As the darkness consumes me, I don't care if it destroys me.Gabriele Vitale: Aria Costa is off-limits for many reasons, the least of which is that she's Marcello Costa's younger sister. She's also too young and way too inexperienced to be with someone like me who enjoys dabbling in the darker side of sensuality. My father and her brother have made it clear that I am to steer clear. And I try. But it proves impossible to erase her from my mind. Whenever she's near, my protective instincts roar, 'Mine' and I'd do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Which is why after a foolish decision one night I'm forced to help her figure out who's threatening her and what they want. I'd give my life for hers, and it might very well come to that"--
