They call me Doc because that is what I am, even if the law says I can’t be. I’m inked head to toe, ride a Harley, and wear a cut, but my love for medicine is the blood in my veins.

Statt an der Detektivakademie für ihren Abschluss zu pauken, verschlägt es die ambitionierte Jungschnüfflerin diesmal an einen Lost Place, in ein ehemaliges Grandhotel nahe dem Zauberberg Semmering. In den alten Mauern wohnt seit vielen Jahren nur noch die Erinnerung – und neuerdings ein besonders hinterhältiger Mörder. Und dann ist da noch dieses seltsame Gerücht über ein Geheimversteck voller Diamanten ...
