The hangman's daughter
The hangman's daughter
Synopsis
In a Bavarian town ruled by superstition and strict law, Magdalena Kuisl is the daughter of the hangman — a position that carries both respect and revulsion. When her father's mysterious death sets off a chain of events, she must navigate a web of conspiracy, old grudges, and dark secrets to uncover what really happened. Set in 1659 with a prologue reaching back decades, this atmospheric historical mystery blends the grim reality of early modern execution law with a plot that keeps tightening toward its shocking conclusion.
