About this ebook

Laura Forster´s doing it again. The third volume follows her, with some anticipation, to the Channel Islands, in the Bay of St. Malo. Here, she is busy unveiling a dark secret ultimately harking back to the German occupation during WW II. The focus of her investigations lies on the history of the legendary Yarmouth Six: a jolly band of six young expendables recruited from a notorious "juvie". Under the leadership of an inexperienced lieutenant straight from Sandhurst, they are to mount a "pinprick" commando raid on the heavily mined little island of Sark. A suicide mission, obviously, that soon runs into heavy waters and comes very close to a fubar end. One of the recruits drowns; others sustain gunshot wounds. When, finally, it´s each man for himself, the generalized confusion gives rise to a fair number of dreadful, shocking, but also rather hilarious episodes, laughter being deadlier than bullets.

Once the war is over, the six survivors, who had narrowly failed to become the terror of the Nazis, decide henceforth to take better care of Number One by founding a brotherhood of crime, which, in turn, is to become the terror of the British Isles. All of that is a lot of water under the bridge. Or is it? A long and bloody trail appears to be leading from the six graves to a mysterious present-day murder spree. When, in the course of his vendetta, the killer shoots a certain Solveig by way of collateral, he´s made a bad mistake. Young Solveig happened to be the first great love-affair of Laura Forster´s adoptive son, Ignace. And God knows, the Forster family is not in the habit of taking such things lying down...

Author

Paul Werner

Geboren 1945 in Altensteig, Nordschwarzwald, wuchs Paul Werner in Wuppertal auf. Als Berufsoffiziersanwärter verließ er 1967 nach fast drei Dienstjahren die Bundesmarine. Anlass seiner Demission war der seines Erachtens damals von Politik und Justiz unter den Teppich gekehrte Mord an dem Studenten Benno Ohnesorg. In Würzburg und Bonn studierte er englische und russische Philologie auf das Höhere Lehramt. Ein weiteres Ziel, das er 1972 trotz des inzwischen erlangten Staatsexamens wieder verwarf. Stattdessen ergriff er die Gelegenheit, als Seiteneinsteiger Konferenzdolmetscher der EU-Kommission in Brüssel zu werden. Studierte parallel zu seiner Arbeit aus zuletzt acht "passiven" Sprachen ins Deutsche und Englische auch sechs Semester Jura an der Fernuni Hagen und hielt sich beruflich längere Zeit jeweils in verschiedenen europäischen Metropolen und Kulturen wie London, Kopenhagen, Athen, Moskau und Istanbul auf. Mit einer Dänin verheiratet, besuchte er Skandinavien und nicht zuletzt Norwegen regelmäßig zu Wasser und zu Lande. Nachdem er sich schon während seiner Militär- und Studienzeit immer mal wieder mit Gelegenheitsartikeln für alle möglichen Gazetten versucht hatte, widmete er sich vom Zeitpunkt seiner Pensionierung an fast ausschließlich der Abfassung von maritimen Essays und Abenteuerromanen mit kriminalistischem Einschlag (siehe Verzeichnis). Paul Werner ist geschiedener Vater dreier erwachsener, "durch und durch dänischer" Töchter, wohnt selbst jedoch in Heidelberg.
