She wrote her first novels secretly, at night, while working as a journalist. Her thrillers “The Trap” and “The Shadow” made Melanie Raabe one of the most successful and unique voices in this genre. Her latest novel, The Longest Sleep, tells the story of Mara Lux, a young scientist living in London. She is a leading sleep researcher who has suffered for years from brutal insomnia. She’s scared of her dreams because they have an uncanny habit of blurring with reality… A book about dreams and the ghosts of the past, about reflection and carrying on.
Host: Ulrich Noller
