On Friday, October 9, 2026, at 7:30 PM, the Naturns Library will be the venue for a special cultural evening.
THRILLER
Renowned author Holger J. August will read from his latest South Tyrolean thriller TOTENTANZ – dark, intense, and full of twists.
ABOUT THE CONTENT
Set against an alpine backdrop, a gripping story unfolds: Brixen reporter Marie Pichler finds herself caught in a whirlwind of violence and mystery. A young influencer is brutally attacked in Bolzano, a jeweler is murdered in Brixen, a retired priest is found dead in Eppan, and a corpse appears under mysterious circumstances in Franzensfeste. Marie’s mentor, former star journalist Tom Bauer, suspects a connection – triggered by a discovery he made during his vacation. If his theory holds true, the trail leads to a well-known series of images in the lower Vinschgau valley. Marie and Tom take up the investigation and find themselves in a hunt for a psychopath. Then, Marie suffers a hard blow…
DRUM
The tension is amplified live by Ulrike Moritz, who creates an atmosphere with drum & sound that gets under your skin.
PLAUS TOTENTANZ
Following this, Heinrich Kainz (Naturns-Plaus Local Heritage Association) will present the publication PLAUSER TOTENTANZ by Luis Stefan Stecher – an impressive insight into local cultural history.
