In 1995, the mutilated body of a female tourist is found in the hills overlooking Heidelberg. By 1997, three more female tourists have been brutally murdered. The media accuse Police Commissioner Kurt Schiller and Inspector Stefan Krupp of incompetence, and demand that they resign. So far, the motive for the deaths is sketchy, but the consensus is clear. Someone is trying to scare tourists away, but no one knows who or why.Most of the murders occur during springtime festivals, and most of the bodies are found in the hills above Heidelberg, except the latest one, which is found outside a US military installation near Seckenheim. This raises more questions since, besides location, there are other inconsistencies that cannot be explained.Inspector Krupp is faced with a puzzling dilemma. Is a clever killer trying to confuse the police, or are there two vicious killers on the loose with different motives? Soon, when a fifth victim is discovered, and a sixth is identified as a possible next one, Krupp must accept what his seasoned instincts tell him. The killer is someone he knows. Now, he must prove what he suspects before another innocent victim is killed...or he is.
