Der Augensammler
This thriller series follows a killer who removes the eyes of his victims. A detective and a psychologist pursue the elusive "Eye Collector" and "Eye Hunter" across a dark, suspenseful narrative, exploring the minds of both predator and prey.
The series should be read in publication order: Der Augensammler, followed by Der Augenjäger, and then Playlist. While each book features a distinct case, following the order allows for the full development of recurring characters and overarching narrative threads.
The Der Augensammler series is part of a larger interconnected universe within Sebastian Fitzek's works, with characters and events from these books sometimes referenced or appearing in other standalone novels by the author. This creates a richer experience for readers familiar with his broader bibliography.
The first book in the series, Der Augensammler, was adapted into a German film titled "Der Augensammler" (The Eye Collector) in 2011. This adaptation captures the intense psychological thriller elements of the novel.
