  • Summary:

    The serial killer Fritz Haarmann, a police officer, abused the trust people saw in the uniform and sexually abused and murdered more than 20 boys in 1920s Germany. Isabel Kreitz and the writer Peer Meter teamed up to adapt this chilling true crime story into a graphic novel. Her realist style
    recreates the city of Hanover of the 1920s, whose dark corners reflect both the emotional abyss of Haarmann’s
    personality and the political and social situation of post WW I Germany.
