The body of 92-year-old Jossi Goldberg, Holocaust survivor and American citizen, is found shot to death execution style in his house near Frankfurt. A five-digit number is scrawled in blood at the murder scene. The autopsy reveals an old and unsuccessfully covered tattoo on the corpse's arm―a blood type marker once used by Hitler's SS. Pia Kirchhoff and Oliver Bodenstein are faced with a riddle. Was the old man not Jewish after all? Who was he, really? Two more, similar murders happen―one of a wheelchair-bound old lady in a nursing home, and one of a man with a cellar filled with Nazi paraphernalia―and slowly the connections between the victims becomes evident: All of them were lifelong friends with Vera von Kaltensee, baroness, well-respected philanthropist, and head of an old, rich family that she rules with an iron fist. Pia and Oliver follow the trail, which leads them all the way back to the end of World War II and the area of Poland that then belonged to East Prussia. No one is who they claim to be, and things only begin to make sense when the two investigators realize what the bloody number stands for, and uncover an old diary and an eyewitness who is finally willing to come forward. Nele Neuhaus's The Ice Queen is a character- and plot-driven mystery about revenge, power, and long-forgotten and covered up secrets from a time in German history that still affects the present.

The recent "discovery" of German wartime suffering has had a particularly profound impact in German visual culture. Films from Margarethe von Trotta's Rosenstrasse (2003) to Oliver Hirschbiegel's Oscar-nominated Downfall (2004) and the two-part television mini-series Dresden (2006) have shown how ordinary Germans suffered during and after the war. Such films have been presented by critics as treating a topic that had been taboo for German filmmakers. However, the representation of wartime suffering has a long tradition on the German screen. For decades, filmmakers have recontextualized images of Germans as victims to engage shifting social and ideological discourses. By focusing on this process, the present volume explores how the changing representation of Germans as victims has shaped the ways in which both of the postwar German states and the now-unified nation have attempted to face the trauma of the past and to construct a contemporary place for themselves in the world.

SIE MUSSTEN STERBEN. AN EINEM SONNTAG. Im Wohnhaus einer stillgelegten Fabrik wird eine Leiche gefunden. Es handelt sich um den ehemaligen Betreiber des Werks, Theodor Reifenrath, wie Kriminalhauptkommissarin Pia Sander feststellt. In einem Hundezwinger machen sie und ihr Chef Oliver von Bodenstein eine weitere grausige Entdeckung: Neben einem fast verhungerten Hund liegen menschliche Knochen verstreut und die Spurensicherung findet immer mehr Tote auf dem Grundstck. Reifenrath lebte sehr zurckgezogen, seit zwanzig Jahre zuvor seine Frau Rita auf mysterise Weise verschwand. Im Dorf will niemand glauben, dass er ein Serienmrder war. Rechtsmediziner Henning Kirchhoff kann einige der Opfer aus dem Hundezwinger identifizieren, die schon vor Jahren ermordet wurden. Alle waren Frauen. Alle verschwanden an einem Sonntag im Mai. Pia ist berzeugt: Der Mrder luft noch frei herum. Er sucht sein nchstes Opfer. Und bald ist Anfang Mai.
