International bestseller Sebastian Fitzek plunges readers into the
depths of their own souls in a new high-concept thriller.
The Soul Breaker destroys women. He doesn't kill them or mutilate them.
But he leaves them completely dead inside, paralyzed and catatonic.
His only trace a note left in their hands. There are three known victims
when suddenly the abductions stop. The Soul Breaker has tired of his
game, it seems.
Meanwhile, a man has been found in the snow outside an exclusive
psychiatric clinic. He has no recollection of who he is, or why he is
there. Unable to match him to any of the police's missing people, the
nurses call him Casper. Casper makes little progress regaining his
memory, but he grows restless and wants to leave the clinic to piece
together the few clues to his life. But the weather has taken a turn for
the worse, and the clinic becomes completely cut off to the world
outside.
No one is able to reach the clinic, and its staff and patients cannot
leave. So when the head psychiatrist is found trembling, naked and
distraught, with a slip of paper clasped in her hands, it seems
somehow the Soul Breaker has returned...
