The new pitch-black comedy from Germany’s Queen of Crime.

Terminally ill, childless widower Wolfram makes an off er to his former colleague Karla: If she agrees to take care of his funeral and gravestone, she will inherit a quarter of his fortune. If she cares for him until his death, she will inherit half, and if she kills him at his request, she will get everything, a nineteenth century villa included.

Til Greed Does Us Part is about the over- whelming desire for more, which leads even a humble woman like the former librarian Karla to engage in monkey business.

The inspector who takes on the mysterious case ﬁ nds himself caught up in a story of love and taboo between two men and a woman: Jacob Tolmeyn, an art historian from Berlin, fears persecution due to his homosexuality and takes up a research post in Southern Italy, far away from the dangers of the big city.

While private investigator Johann Friedrich von Allmen and his assistant Carlos are still celebrating the successful recovery of the valuable Dahlia picture, Carlos’ life partner María Moreno disappears. Not a lovers’ tiff , as Allmen’s factotum assume at ﬁ rst, but the brutal revenge of those who feel they were robbed. María in exchange for the Dahlia picture – that is the kidnappers’ demand. But they did not reckon with old Dalia Gutbauer. For she is unwilling to hand over the picture, and has her own ideas about what she wants to do with it. This, of course, puts Allmen, Carlos and María in an extremely precarious situation. They need to act fast, and they all give their best in a dramatic race Novel against time. 208 pages April 2014 World rights are handled by Diogenes. Film rights are available.

The book to end all books – the last book of the 20th century.

»Pictures like atomic waste, caricatures of a world which caricatures itself, caricatures multi plied, squared, cubed. Hieroglyphs of horror: ›And look, oh look! On the white wall, a human hand; it wrote and wrote on the white wall, in letters of ﬁ re; it wrote and dis- appeared.‹ It is what the prophet Daniel told the King of Babylon, about his future, that Tomi Ungerer is telling us: about our future. It is there in these pages. It is up to you, reader and art-lover, to summon up the courage to look at them. You, too, are a contemporary. I know it is not easy. Perhaps you will become an art-hater. It will not matter. Nowadays art has too many false lovers anyway. But the time when things stop being merely amusing is not time lost. It could be that in these times we 172 pages, 22 x 27 cm begin to realise that reﬂ ection is an activity First published in 1979 which we earthly contemporaries of ourselves World rights are handled by Diogenes. and other rats need desperately.« Friedrich Dürrenmatt (Preface)
