À avoir des hallucinations qui me semblent parfois tellement vraies....

He was treated as a spy, a god, a welcome stranger and a curiosity

Matthias Hegel ist forensischer Phonetiker und der beste Audio-Profiler Deutschlands. Er ist imstande, nur anhand von Tönen, Geräuschen, Dialekten und Stimmfarben ein psychologisches und optisches Profil von Menschen zu erstellen. Dank ihm sitzen einige der gefährlichsten Straftäter im Gefängnis. Erpresser, Geiselnehmer, Attentäter, von denen die Ermittler oftmals nur kurze Audiomitschnitte hatten. Hegel ist faszinierend, charismatisch, schwer durchschaubar. Und: Er sitzt in Einzelhaft. Vor einem Jahr hat er eine obdachlose Frau bestialisch ermordet.

"Superb."—Oliver Burkeman A challenge to the tyranny of work and a call to reclaim our lives from its clutches. From the moment we ask children what they want to “be” when they grow up, we exalt the dream job as if it were life’s ultimate objective. Many entangle their identities with...
