Acoustic forensics, an opaque profiler, and a kidnapped baby:
Today, „Auris 2 – The Frequency of Death,“ the sequel to the thriller series about forensic phonetician Matthias Hegel, is released. 
In the second part, the dangerous cat-and-mouse game between Hegel and Jula continues, and of course, nothing is as it seems again.
Now available in bookstores and as an Audible Original audio drama featuring the voices of Oliver Masucci, Luisa Wietzorek, and Simon Jäger, among others. Written by Vincent Kliesch. Based on an idea by me.

And this is what it's about this time:

»Help, my baby is gone! There's only blood here...« After short sounds of a struggle, a mother's panicked emergency call to 112 suddenly cuts off. If anyone can draw conclusions about the woman's whereabouts from this audio fragment, it's forensic phonetician Matthias Hegel – whom some still consider a murderer.
True crime podcaster Jula Ansorge may have succeeded in clearing Hegel of suspicion in his wife's murder, but in doing so, she got too close to the dark side of the brilliant profiler.
When Hegel wants to once again rely on Jula's research skills in the case of the kidnapped baby, Jula initially refuses. But can she really leave the baby and its mother to their fate? And what about the information about her supposedly dead brother Moritz, which Hegel allegedly wants to obtain for her?
