Friedrich Kalpenstein has done it again: Starting tomorrow, the fifth part of the Tischler series will be available: "Cheers, to the singles" is the name of the thriller from Brunngries.
Why did Tanja Kleinschmidt even take part in the speed dating at Brunngrieser “Krause”?
Because the male clientele is actually far too provincial for her.
Among them was Felix Fink, a detective in personal union with mama's boy, who is now looking for a second woman in his life due to speed dating.
Friedrich Kalpenstein: The fifth part of the Brunngries crime novels will be published tomorrow
Just as Felix is too small-minded for Tanja, the other way round finds the young lady snooty and quickly excludes her from his "bridal scheme".
Including defamation!
Which doesn't even end the next morning when Tanja Kleinschmidt is found dead on the banks of the Brunngries river.
What does Fink have to do with it?
Will the case detective become the prime suspect?
So far, only one person knows this:
Friedrich Kalpenstein
, who devised the equally exciting and original
story "Cheers to the Singles"
as the
fifth part of the Brunngries crime novels
about Tanja Kleinschmidt, Felix Fink and Constantin Tischler.
Kalpenstein is the spiritual father of the unequal criminal duo and invented the tranquil Brunngries.
But crime lurks behind the idyll, because Tanja Kleinschmidt is already the fifth murder victim to die there under mysterious circumstances.
Friedrich Kalpenstein: Detailed work in the "cozy crime"
With Brunngries, Kalpenstein has created a special microcosm - the backdrop to the "cozy crime", the feel-good thriller that Tischler and Fink are confronted with.
The case is just as important as the private sensitivities of the protagonists: Tischler and his hesitant affection for the doctor Britta as well as his aversion to Viennese Beuscherl, on the other hand Felix Fink, a fan of traditional costumes and Mama, who is much more approachable when it comes to Beuscherl .
Friedrich Kalpenstein has once again invested a great deal of detailed work in "Cheers to the Singles".
One thing is clear: there are no Brunngries, just like Tischler, Fink, Britta or Tanja.
But there are counterparts!
"Zolling could also be Brunngries," says Kalpenstein, emphasizing that he used the small town that he looked at in the foothills of the Alps as a model for his crime scenes.
This is how he sees what is happening in front of him, this is how he always lets carpenters turn at the same intersection to his apartment or to the infirmary.
That's how Tischler's bachelor pad always looks the same, and that's how the inspector always looks the same.
Or Felix Fink.
Friedrich Kalpenstein: Feedback from the readers
In Kalpenstein's head - and to be on the safe side in his computer - all the pieces of the puzzle of his story live three-dimensionally.
He has all of his figures plastically in front of him.
Like Luise from the police station, who suddenly reminded him of Luise Kinseher.
For the sake of simplicity, he stuck with it.
Luise is now Luise!
"That's how the figures got clearer and clearer contours," says Kalpenstein.

The fact that this meticulous way of working bears fruit, despite all the creativity, is proven by the feedback from his readership, who critically examined the
author
before publication.
Even if the questions sometimes go into great detail and are not exclusively positive, "I learn from every single reaction," says the successful author.
