Jakob Nolte: The woman with the four arms

Inline skates on his feet, strangulation marks on his neck, headphones in his ears. The body of a young man lies on the banks of the Ihme in Hanover. A case for the equally brilliant and brusque Rita Aitzinger and her colleague Ilia Schuster from the homicide squad. Between the opera, a station pub and a burger joint, they get deeper and deeper into a thicket of references: Pop songs, dating app profiles, mysterious tattoos - they are the key to solving the case, Rita is convinced. Or has she fallen into the snare of a psycho killer? Was Sebastian Tamm not the first victim? And what does the shy patrolman Gerd Lampe have to do with it? DIE FRAU MIT DEN VIER ARMEN tells the story of sad boys who seek happiness and find death. Abysmal, full of quirky characters and full of humor, Nolte shows a Hanover that has never existed before and invents the "Lower Saxony Noir". It is about police work, justice and the question of whether one can be guilty of thinking like others.
