Dampfnudelblues: Ein Provinzkrimi | 
so-so
Franz Ebenhofer is a hapless,clueless Oma's boy who insults all around him,and happens to be the village police officer.The type who goes for a drink after work and arrests guys who were drinking in the bar with him,the type who makes chauvinistic,racist,sexist comments without seeing it as problematic.Oh, there's the murder of the local school principal to solve.
The book captures the spirit of small town life in a German speaking country.
