The old cathedral city of Bamberg forms the colorful backdrop to this kaleidoscope of eras. Barbara Weyermännin, who can actually be found in the city's annals around 1510, tells the story of the women in her family. Once a brewer and fisherwoman herself in Bamberg's Middle Ages, she accompanies her ancestors through more than 500 turbulent years of German-Franconian-Weyermann history and closely follows the emancipatory development.
Parallel to scenes from days long past, we experience a weekend in May 2029. 150 years of Weyermann® Malz are celebrated in style - over 1000 guests from all over the world indulge in art, culture and culinary delights for three days. Companions, business partners, friends of the two managing directors Sabine and Thomas Weyermann as well as junior manager Franziska will jointly ignite a firework display full of memories.
But not all contemporaries are happy - a secret from a dark time long past comes to light and endangers the company. Can the Weyermänninen avert the danger with the help of their ancestor Barbe?
Word weaver Heike Bauer-Banzhaf and her co-author and husband Bernd skillfully combine historical facts with imaginative details. This is the first biographical-fictional novel by the author couple!
