Frida of Hamelin

Hamelin, 1283/4 – Frida has buried her husband and children. Now she clings to the only thing she has left: her shoemaker's workshop – until Marek is forced upon her as a journeyman.

The young stranger is searching for his roots: his mother Svanhild once disappeared from Hamelin under cover of night. Frida can help – but Marek's uncle Dietrich reacts with a hostility that unsettles them both.

While Frida slowly finds her way back to life and Marek struggles for acceptance, a third person appears in town: Nikolaus von Spiegelberg promotes resettlement to the east.

Perfect for Marek, Dietrich thinks, especially since most of Hamelin's residents show little interest in the idea.

But then Nikolaus von Spiegelberg resorts to a trick...

The legend of the Pied Piper of Hamelin – in a new outfit: no horror, no conspiracy theory, but a moving story about people who could have truly lived back then.
