In 1886, King Ludwig II, the King of Bavaria, was deposed on grounds of mental incapacity without any medical examination. His "diagnosis" remains controversial among historians to this day. Soon after his fall from power, Ludwig died under mysterious circumstances, leaving the eccentric and beautiful "fairytale" castles he had built as his only remaining legacy.While putting away books from an estate sale purchase, rare book-dealer Steven Lukas finds a box he's never seen before wedged between books on a high shelf. In it he discovers what looks to be a small diary written entirely in code, a lock of hair, and old photographs of the Fairytale King. It isn't long however, before his excitement turns to fear as he realizes that mysterious others want the diary too-and will apparently kill to get it. Suspecting that his find may contain the secret truth behind Ludwig's death, Steven consults with art historian Sara Lengfeld. Soon they find themselves on the run together, investigating each of Ludwig's three castles for clues as to just what in that ancient diary could be so explosive as to be worth killing-and even dying-for.

A good read.

Having read all the 'Hangman's Daughter' series I was keen to read this. I struggled with the slow start, but I'm so glad I stuck with it. A really good story - would definitely recommend it.

Great Read

Reviewed in Canada on 6 October 2013

I never knew much about King Ludwig before reading this amazing murder mystery but was a fan of the authors other books and took a chance reading it and was not disappointed! From beginning to end the story of murder, intrigue and conspiracy of history rivals Dan Brown's Davici Code. Oliver Potzsch has done a magnificent job of spinning this tale and delivering a true literary masterpiece! I one day hope to visit Bavaria and the places to where the author brought Bavarian history and intrigue alive for me.

with this material, it could have been better

Reviewed in Canada on 14 August 2014

Verified Purchase

I was expecting more based on the other reviews. The plot has a very typical formula - Da Vinci Code anyone? - and I skimmed a lot. I'm of Bavarian heritage so that kept me reading. I think with a bit more imagination and less gratuitous gore, it could have been a really good book. The best part is it has prompted me to find out more about Ludwig.
