OPERATION GURKENBROT
A dark noir thriller set amidst the red-light district, the harbor, and lost truths.
Short Description:
Hamburg by night.
Rain, neon lights, and a harbor full of secrets.
The former Portuguese undercover investigator Miguel Duarte is living a broken life between harbor pubs, cheap guesthouses, and alcohol when a name from his past suddenly reappears:
Operation Gurkenbrot.
Decades ago, Miguel worked undercover against human trafficking, arms dealing, and corrupt networks in the shadow of the harbor. At that time, Sofia Mendes – the woman he loved – disappeared.
Today, Miguel realizes that the old operation was never truly over.
And that some truths are more deadly than any weapon.
Detailed Description:
"Operation Gurkenbrot – In the Shadow of the Harbor" is an atmospheric noir thriller full of melancholy, corruption, and dark memories.
At its center is Miguel Duarte, a former Portuguese undercover investigator who lost everything after a failed secret operation in the Hamburg harbor district: his career, his future, and the woman he loved.
Years later, new clues suddenly emerge about the long-forgotten "Operation Gurkenbrot" – a former international investigation project against human trafficking, arms dealing, and smuggling networks.
But Miguel quickly realizes:
The operation was never ended.
It only changed names, owners, and methods.
As violence, betrayal, and missing people once again spread in the shadow of the harbor, Miguel embarks on a final journey back into the night that destroyed his life.
A dark thriller about:
- Guilt and betrayal
- lost people
- corrupt power structures
- the loneliness of the night
- and systems that never disappear
