And the picture-perfect, but devious »housewife« Patricia Müller knows that her husband is cheating on her.
Three women could not be more different, and all the other figures of this novel are also highly colorful personalities. However, one thing connects them: their partiality for Carl, the charismatic keeper of a legendary café in Frankfurt – Welcome to Café Carl!
Carls placid life between bar and coffeehouse-tables also suddenly gets whirled. He gets confusiong information on his wife Josie, who left him sixteen years ago because of another man.
