The engineer Rosalie leads a life without standing still. She doesn't feel old for a long time, only mature. When Rosalie returns to Germany after a fainting spell at a solar project in Africa, it's just supposed to be a breather. When she shows up at her bourgeois sister Margret's with a huge container, she is not very enthusiastic about the surprise visit. The retired teacher sees right through that Rosalie isn't staying with her voluntarily. The well-travelled woman is broke! It seems like a miracle that there are a huge chunk of banknotes in a hole in the wall of the room. On the other side of the wall there is the room of the highly talented high school graduate Karla, who rents a part of Margret's house with her father Harald. After a failed first meeting, Rosalie befriends with the wheelchair-bound teenager and sets her mind on getting Karla out of her sheltered isolation, even against her will.

Kreuzeder was once a successful commissioner, but now he rarely solves a case. After more than 20 years in the service, he just wants to retire as quickly as possible and leave everyday life in the homicide squad in Lower Bavaria behind. Kreuzeder is of the opinion that humanity is coming to an end anyway, so he prefers to get drunk in the tavern and flirt with the waitress Gerda Bichler there instead of going about his work.

El atlas de las nubes es una novela que da la vuelta al mundo y recorre desde el siglo XIX hasta un futuro apocalíptico, a través de seis historias entrelazadas. El relato se abre en 1850 con el regreso del notario estadounidense Adam Ewing desde las islas Chatham a su California natal. Durante el viaje, Ewing traba amistad con un médico, el doctor Goose, que comienza a tratarle de una extraña enfermedad causada por un parásito cerebral... Repentinamente, la acción se traslada a 1931 en Bélgica, donde Robert Frobisher, un compositor bisexual que ha sido desheredado, se introduce en el hogar de un artista enfermizo, su seductora esposa y su núbil hija... De ahí saltamos a la Costa Oeste en la década de los setenta, cuando Luisa Rey destapa una red de avaricia y crimen que pone en peligro su vida... Y, del mismo modo, con idéntica maestría, viajamos a la ignominiosa Inglaterra de nuestros días.
