Produktbeschreibung
The riddle of the frozen flame is a mystery novel that presents an intricate investigation tied to a puzzling wave of gold thefts and a series of strange occurrences in a secluded countryside. The narrative opens with growing concern at a law enforcement agency over several unresolved bank robberies, each marked by a lack of evidence and a striking precision in execution. This sparks a broader inquiry that leads to an isolated estate, where unexplained lights in the surrounding marshes raise both suspicion and fear. The initial tension builds around the legacy of a long-vanished estate owner and the current resident s decision to revisit the site despite ominous warnings. What follows is an unfolding mystery that blends meticulous investigation with atmospheric tension. The novel explores the weight of inheritance, public scrutiny, and the danger of chasing unresolved truths. Through its investigative lens, it poses questions about perception, coincidence, and whether clarity is always found through reason alone or shaped by what one chooses to believe.
