The Little Café by the Cemetery - A Crime Comedy by Anne Griesser

Freiburg-based author and crime fiction entertainer Anne Grießer will read from her crime comedy *Das kleine Café am Friedhof* in the criminal courtroom of the Regional Court

 

Not every corpse lies in a coffin...
Agnes, Waltraud, and Erika share a highly unusual passion: funerals. The elderly trio meets regularly for coffee and cake at the small café by the cemetery after the funerals. Just a harmless little ritual? Not quite. The three of them harbor more than just one dark secret.
When a mysterious stranger shows up at the cemetery one day, the trio becomes unsettled. Deeply alarmed, the ladies set out on a whimsical search for clues through their memories, aided by a bow-legged dog with a bloated belly and a resourceful waitress with nerves of steel.

A pitch-black crime comedy—macabre, absurd, and touching.

Anne Grießer brings the world of her stories to life during her readings.

The reading will take place in the jury courtroom of the Freiburg Regional Court.
