Falling in Death and Love by Magnus Stanke


Love hit when they met. Murder came later 
The year: 1977. No internet, no mobile phones; tablets cure headaches not boredom. 
The place: Mallorca, Spain. The Dictator is Dead, Long Live Tourism 
David falls hard for Aurora and vice versa, but the holiday is over. When she returns she isn’t alone, the deadly chase already underway. 
First the hit men then the police. 
‘Falling in Death and Love’ is a hard-boiled, heartfelt thriller, a breathless ride through times of change. 
Love, guilt, paternity, murder - probably not in that order. 

Available on Amazon


Check out what Readers are saying about Falling In Death and Love.

You know that feeling when you read a book and you just want to force everyone else to read it too? That's how I would describe this novel. I've gifted this to a couple of people who've also loved it. The setting is great - you feel like you've gone back in time to the seventies and you're really there on the island. I had no idea what was going to happen next at any point, and yet the plot never felt contrived. There were a lot of characters, but I got to spend time with and get to know each of them (and fell in love with a few). You definitely need to give this book a whirl if you're a thriller fan.

Really enjoyed this. A real page turner, an exciting plot with a vivid sense of place. Well paced with a host of diverse rounded characters. Humour, romance as well as heartbreak, I can't wait for his next book.

Magnus Stanke came to fiction writing relatively late in life, and via literary detours in song-writing, film scripts and film criticism. He has worked professionally as bank clerk, shiatsu practitioner and language teacher. In his twenties he spent a lot of time backpacking and he has now settled in Spain. 
He sincerely wishes there were more hours in the day to pursue his other hobbies, now, that the writing is increasingly taking over.

He's also in the process of writing his second retro-thriller book.
