The Birthmark Murders: "Death is a Cabaret, Old Chum."

Step into a world where secrets smoulder between the lines and truth hides behind the curtain.When Mikael, a half-Finnish New Zealander, returns to his father's homeland after decades away, he isn't looking for trouble-just answers. His father, Mikael L?ngberg, once a brilliant theatre director, died under mysterious circumstances during the final days of a notorious Cabaret production. Officially ruled a suicide. Unofficially? Nothing adds up.Teaming up with a reluctant old friend, a sharp-tongued editor and translator of famous sci-fi novels, Pekka Wall, and a local young misfit, Mikael plunges into Finland's eccentric, icy underworld-where silence speaks volumes, humour cuts deep, and the past never stays buried. As layers of performance, paranoia, and betrayal unfold, he discovers that solving a murder is easy... compared to facing the truth.Darkly funny, emotionally layered, and rich with a Finnish atmosphere, The Birthmark Murders is a mystery that dances between satire and sorrow, theatre and truth, love and obsession. Prepare to laugh, flinch, and turn pages late into the night.
