Overview

23 Evil Gifts - In the Web of the Puppy MafiaA novel that cuts deep: 23 Evil Gifts is a disturbing, socially critical animal and psychological thriller about courage, loyalty, and the darkest depths of human nature-inspired by true events. Frankfurt am Main, winter 2022. While the city glows with festive lights, an invisible wave of terror spreads through the streets. A series of poisoned-bait attacks shakes the metropolis. Within weeks, more than a dozen dogs die agonizing deaths, dozens more are severely injured-and nothing seems able to stop the perpetrator. What begins as isolated incidents quickly reveals itself as part of a far more sinister plan. Behind the façade lurks a network of animal cruelty, corruption, and a ruthless, multi-million-dollar illegal puppy trade. When retired homicide detective Heisenberg stumbles upon one of the deadly traps one morning, everything changes. Together with his two dogs-Angel, a female Border Collie, and Elgas, a Belgian Malinois-his longtime friend and former colleague Winterfeld, and Winterfeld's Cane Corso Simba, he begins to follow the trail. What starts as a search for answers turns into a merciless race against time-against an enemy pulling the strings from the shadows: a man known only as Păpușar, the Puppeteer. The hunt for an unseen adversary soon becomes a fight for survival. Heisenberg, Winterfeld, and their dogs are drawn deeper into the sights of the puppy mafia. They face brutal enforcers, survive savage confrontations, and are caught in relentless chases across Frankfurt-from dark backyards to abandoned industrial halls. Blood. Sweat. Raw fear-and the unbreakable will to confront evil head-on. As Păpușar's shadow closes in, there is only one choice left: hold your ground, strike back, never give up. Every clue leads further into the heart of darkness. Corruption reaches deep into politics and law enforcement. The pursuit of the perpetrator becomes a bitter struggle for justice-and for the lives of the innocent. Heisenberg realizes: the poison does not threaten dogs alone. It threatens the entire city. And the greatest danger lies in society's silence. Welcome to hell on four paws. If you hate dogs, you will hate this book. If you love suspense, you will devour it. Welcome to the nightmare. Welcome to the web of the puppy mafia.
