Psychological thriller "Passenger 23"

Psychological thriller by Sebastian Fitzek. Based on the bestselling novel of the same name, adapted for the stage by Christian Scholze and performed by the Berliner Kriminaltheater at the Theaterring Schramberg. Every year, 23 people disappear during a cruise around the world. 23 people whose fates remain unknown. No one has ever returned. Until now, except for Anouk, a girl who disappeared with her mother six months ago. Anouk, who reappears. In her arm, she holds a teddy bear. And it is not her own. The mysterious call comes in the middle of an operation. Police psychologist Martin Schwartz must immediately travel to England and board the cruise ship "Sultan of the Seas." He never wanted to set foot on a ship again, never wanted to expose his shattered soul to the torments of memory. Five years ago, his son disappeared with his wife on that very cruise ship; no one saw anything, and the police assumed it was suicide. But now there are supposed clues about what happened to his family. There is no doubt, it is his son's teddy bear. For him, a world collapses once more; the nightmare he thought couldn't get worse is just beginning. The ship sets sail, heading for New York. 3,000 passengers, a traumatized girl, a deeply disturbed police psychologist – and a murderer on the hunt.
