Rita Falk

    May 30, 1964

    Rita Falk has won the hearts of her readers with her provincial crime series featuring village policeman Franz Eberhofer. The author herself says that she spent the happiest time of her life in Upper Bavaria, where she spent her childhood with her grandmother. Rita Falk has remained true to this region, which she knows intimately, even as an adult, and now lives in Munich. Childhood experiences are the treasure from which Rita Falk draws as a writer. In her Franz Eberhofer crime novels, a Bavarian village is at the center of the action, a setting the author masterfully and authentically brings to life. With a generous portion of sharp humor and keen insight, she presents readers with human weaknesses, both large and small. She has imbued her protagonist, village constable Franz Eberhofer, with an authentic Bavarian vernacular that is tough but warm-hearted, because Franz says what he thinks. Her stories from 'dahoam' (home) will surely continue to resonate.
