You step off Rathausmarkt into a city that plays both stage and clue — cobbled alleys, red-brick façades, and the Elbe’s current daring you to keep moving. The phone buzzes; a fictive telegram drags you into a century-old murder, and the streets of central Hamburg become a map of motives and misdirection.
