The new novel "The Blood List" by Rainer Löffler is definitely not for the faint of heart.

With the fourth case for Martin Abel, the author resigns.

The dark novel "The Blood List" fits easily into the previous series about Martin Abel.

Visually coordinated with the red book edge and the dark cover.

Rainer Löffler "Blood List": About the book

Traumatized by the loss of his daughter, the protagonist Abel wanders through the novel trying not only to find a bestial killer, but also to find answers about his daughter's death.

The body of a murdered, horribly disfigured man is discovered in a grave in a Cologne cemetery.

The young woman who was supposed to be lying there has disappeared.

She too was the victim of a bloody crime.

Case analyst Martin Abel is ordered to Cologne and suspects a connection between the cases.

He discovers that clues point to a murder long ago - and that the key to solving the current case must lie in the family of this very first murder victim.

But then another mutilated body is found in someone else's grave, and Abel realizes that the next victim is already on the list.

A race against time begins ...

blurb

Rainer Löffler "Blood List": My conclusion

Written in a thrilling manner throughout, the thriller is convincing.

The reactions of the grieving and traumatized Martin Abel are drawn realistically and sweep the reader away.

Very bloody and brutal, but understandable you investigate together with the protagonist.

I can recommend "Blutliste" for everyone who likes hard thrillers.
