About “Angst”
Hardly anyone knows Alex Hoffmann, yet in exclusive circles his name is spoken with reverence. He is considered a visionary scientist whose software earns enormous profits on stock exchanges around the world.
His software combines artificial intelligence with the analysis of fear signals from the worldwide network and predicts market movements with unsettling precision. Then one night changes everything: an intruder breaks through the security of the house by the lake and wakes Hoffmann and his wife.
Who wants his downfall, and how far does the fear reach that he himself has fished out of the network? The novel leaves open whether the danger comes from outside or from his own creation. It is the seventh volume of the “Sfd & ...” series.
Who is “Angst” for?
For readers of economic thrillers who want technology, power and paranoia combined in one story. Anyone who likes crime novels with a clear antagonist and a protagonist on the edge will find a dense, unsettling narrative here about responsibility and control.
When is “Angst” the best read?
At around 120 pages, the volume can be finished in one long evening. The unsettling mood suits the dark season, and anyone who starts the story in the evening will hardly want to put it down.
In what order should you read the “Sfd & ...” series?
“Wut” is the first volume, “Gespenster” the second, “Ohne Netz” the third, “Tiere” the fourth, “Pataphysik” the fifth and “Grotesk” the sixth. This selection concludes with “Angst” as the seventh volume. Anyone following the series should read the volumes in the order of the numbers assigned to each title.
