About this listen

In 1668, hangman Jakob Kuisl, his daughter Magdalena, and her husband Simon are traveling to the town of Bamberg. But what was planned as a family vacation soon becomes a nightmare: there is a murderer in Bamberg leaving the severed limbs of victims in the trash outside the city. When rumors quickly spread that the murders are the work of a werewolf, Jakob Kuisl must prove the superstition wrong and embark on a search for the "devil of Bamberg". This thrilling fifth entry in Oliver Pötzsch's Hangman's Daughter series follows the continuing adventures and mysteries that surround the Kuisl family.

Thoroughly Entertaining & Historically Correct!

Interesting murder mystery based on true stories, as the author explains at the end.
There were some things that seemed off, as when one of the characters wished another to have a nice rest of their day doing... (somewhat paraphrased here) which surprised me, but looked it up & there's actually IS nothing new under the sun!
Also in looking this up, found historical references to one of the actual executioners of Bamberg Germany in the Middle Ages. Fun!!!

History is violent...

..and this story, while fiction, relates that inhumanity to one's neighbors & family due to the superstitions that were all too prevalent in those fearful days.
Good story, well told, I was surprised by ending.
I'm going to check out his other books.

great storytelling

having grown up in Bamberg, I enjoyed this book solely on its location. but the story was suspenseful, entertaining and I couldn't wait to find out how this book ended. also, the historical back frond of the story was highly interesting. after finishing this book I ordered the other 4 books in the hangman s daughter series on CD so that I can listen to it on my daily drive to work!

Another fine book in the series.

So happy to find this great author. While not quite up to the level of the previous book in the series it is by far great reading. just slightly predictable in some parts.

A pleasure being wrong

I thought 4 different people were the villain. It was great to realize that I was wrong each time, and more of a pleasure to finally put the story together with the correct one. But I will say that I always knew what was wrong with the bishop. It's terrible that he technically got what he wanted.

Worth more than a single Credit.

I bought the first book on a fluke and loved every minute. Since then, I've listened to the whole series, and passionately awaiting the next issue.
