About the book

In this zen and zany crime debut, a shady lawyer transforms his life through mindfulness—and uses his newfound techniques to kill his way to the top. Original series now streaming on Netflix.

Criminal defense lawyer Björn Diemel has been given an ultimatum: repair his work-life balance, or his wife will leave him—and take their daughter.

He reluctantly starts a mindfulness course, and to his surprise, it’s a revelation. He becomes calmer, happier, and more focused as he starts to understand what’s really important in life. When his worst client, brutal kingpin Dragan Sergowicz, tries to interfere with his precious family time, Björn will stop at nothing—not even killing—to protect his peace.

    The book was quite a drag for me to finish. It just didnt pull me in, even though the mindfulness topics are interesting.

    „Achtsam morden“ is an entertaining and original read, especially thanks to its absurd yet clever premise. The combination of mindfulness techniques with cold-blooded murder is undeniably genius and leads to some genuinely funny moments. That said, the story never fully pulled me in. Björn is a pretty unlikeable protagonist, which may be intentional, but it made it hard to truly care about what happens to him. While the satire works well and the concept is fresh, the execution didn’t quite keep my attention all the way through. Overall, it’s a solid, amusing book with a great idea — just not one that completely stuck with me.
