Love and duty, loss and gain are what our lives are made of. And sometimes events that seemed to be forever in the past find an unexpected continuation in the future. Will police officer Martin Beaumont be able to solve a daring crime and prove his professionalism? And most importantly, will he be able to understand what his youthful love, the beautiful Gabriel, has to do with this complicated affair?
Executioner's daughter and black monk
Credit Oliver Petch
A real find for lovers of historical detective (especially for fans of Umberto Eco's book "The Name of the Rose"). It is said that the ancestors of Oliver Petsch were representatives of the dynasty of German executioners. Perhaps that is why the author chose Bavaria of the XVII century as the setting for his novel. Mysterious murders, treasures of the Templars, ancient tombs and secret monastic orders. Each answer brings with it a series of new questions, and behind each solution lies new historical mysteries. Ready for adventure and mystery?

The subtitle of this book is “50 Lessons to Help You Do the Impossible.” No moralizing, no complex psychological theory, and no long talk about motivation. Ordinary human stories. Or rather, not ordinary, but with meaning. One chapter is one human destiny and one lesson, very simple and at the same time very important. You can read in a row or in an arbitrary order, and you will probably re-read individual chapters several times, I guarantee!
