Guete Tag. Welcome to the Maldeberg Chateau Sanatorium. We hope you will enjoy your cure.

The Story

The Kingdom of Vheissu. Spring 1906.

Jean-Augustin Amrouche is a 21-year-old French-Algerian consumptive who journeys up to the Alps for a short visit at a sanatorium.

Here, he meets a group of diverse characters, each patient luring him into intoxicating world views atypical of the prewar era.

Amongst the assortment of fellow patients, one respectable German philosopher holds a unique distinction: he has been found dead with a dagger in his back.

Soon, the dream-like atmosphere of the facility will collapse into a nightmare, and one by one, each inhabitant of the sanatorium will decline into a permanent rest. And none of the deaths will be from illness…

A murder mystery story occurring in the middle of a philosophical novel. A historical fiction with speculative elements.

Inspired by And Then There Were None-styled murder mysteries and the setting of Thomas Mann's The Magic Mountain.

Emilia Balsamo

Emilia Balsamo: A stoic, Maltese-Indian statistician. Has a strong, rational, amateur detective’s intuition, but not strong enough for her to see the most obvious of all solutions.
