Munich, in the late thirties, the first years of fascism - the last before the war: Kathie is desperate to leave her sheltered village life and sets out for the city, determined that she'll get by, one way or another. She is dark-haired, buxom and pretty, like the women who recently disappeared without a trace. Young women are being found around Munich, abused and murdered. Josef Kalteis has been arrested, but is he really responsible for all those misdeeds? Did they execute the wrong one while the murderer is still on the loose? Spellbound by the magnetizing story of the dead women, the reader follows young Kathie. Somewhere in between her naive search for luck and existential concerns, occasional prostitution and the desire for true love, she is in grave danger. Andrea Maria Schenkel has again created a novel based on real events, in which the story is told through several voices and documentation, including interrogation logs, witness statements and the dark thoughts within the murderer's mind.

Andrea Maria Schenkel lives with her family near Regensburg, in Bavaria, Germany. On publication in Germany, Tannöd won first place in the German Crime Prize as well as the Friedrich-Glauser Prize.
Munich in the 1930s. Young women are being raped and brutally murdered. They are disappearing along quiet country lanes, cycling to destinations they will never reach. A Party member by the name of Josef Kalteis is executed for the crimes, but is he really guilty? Could the murderer still be out there? Kathie has come to Munich looking for work, but found herself drawn into the city's sleazy underworld. Pretty and dark-haired, she fits the profile of the murderer's victims exactly. As she tries to reconcile her naive hopes for happiness and true love with the day-to-day struggle for existence, it becomes clear that she, like the others, is in grave danger. Told in a hypnotic collage of interrogation logs, witness statements and direct, frightening insights into the mind of the murderer and his victims, Ice Cold is the second novel from the award-winning Andrea Maria Schenkel.
