On a July afternoon, a young woman's body is dredged from Sweden's beautiful Lake Vattern. With no clues Beck begins an investigation not only to uncover a murderer but also to discover who the victim was. Three months later, all Beck knows is that her name was Roseanna and that she could have been strangled by any one of eighty-five people on a cruise. As the melancholic Beck narrows the list of suspects, he is drawn increasingly to the enigma of the victim, a free-spirited traveler with a penchant for casual sex, and to the psychopathology of a murderer with a distinctive--indeed, terrifying--sense of propriety.

Hier wird das Werk des in Hagnau geborenen Malers (1815 - 1893) gewürdigt. In der Tradition der deutschen Genremalerei schuf er viele idyllische Bildmotive aus der Bodenseeregion. Die Reihe „Kunst am See“ mit Beiträgen über Malerei, Bildhauerei, Volkskunst und Fotografie vermittelt umfassendes und solides Wissen über das Kunstschaffen in der Region Bodensee-Oberschwaben.
