Summary

A broker wakes up trapped underneath the rubble of a train. It derailed on a dam connecting an island with the mainland. The mud he is lying on is the bottom of the ocean and the high-tide is coming....

The novel was turned into the feature movie Derailed in Canada in 2017. The German novel is published at Weltbild Verlag. And a radio play was produced and published in Germany. The novel has been compared to Edgar Allan Poe and Franz Kafka meeting Haruki Murakami.
