Murder mindfully at the edge of the world

How can you find yourself on the Camino de Santiago when someone is out to get you?

Find yourself. Before someone else does. To avoid a midlife crisis, former lawyer and crime syndicate boss Björn Diemel embarks on a pilgrimage on the advice of his therapist. On the Camino de Santiago, however, he soon discovers that his life might already be past its peak: someone is trying to kill him on the way. As one pilgrim after another meets their end during the failed assassination attempts on his life, Björn tries to save his own skin. His questions about life, death, and fulfilment suddenly take on an unintentionally practical meaning. Will he even make it to the finish line alive?

The author's dark humour is just as sharp as in the previous books, but the backdrop of the pilgrimage adds a welcome dose of tranquillity and depth.

Dusse's writing style is laconic, precise, and incredibly funny. The author successfully avoids the trap of repeating the same formula – the change of scenery does the series a world of good and brilliantly humanises the main character.

Satire on modern self-help culture and the constant desire for self-improvement reaches its peak here.
