The Trap by Melanie Raabe is set, and ready to spring.

I know you killed my sister.
I wrote this novel for you.


Twelve years ago, Linda's sister Anna was murdered. Her killer was never caught, but Linda saw him. Now, all these years on, she's just seen him again. On TV.

He has since become a well-known reporter, and Linda – a famous novelist and infamous recluse – knows no one will believe her if she accuses him, so she does the only thing she can think of: she writes a thriller about a woman who is murdered, her killer never caught. When the book is published, she agrees to give just one media interview. At home. To the one person who knows more about the case than she does.

He knows what happened that night and she wrote a book about it but, when the doorbell rings, neither of them can be sure how the story will end.

Melanie Raabe was born in 1981 and grew up in former East Germany before moving to West Germany with her family. She studied media and literature and was a magazine editor before becoming a freelance journalist and writer. While freelancing, she performed in shows and wrote two plays, all while crafting novels at night. Melanie Raabe lives in Cologne and loves travelling, cooking, bungee-jumping, tattoos, indie rock, and cats. The Trap, which won the Stuttgart Crime Prize, is her first novel.
