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 . . .
