The novel leads into a world of individual end times where Lina Engels keeps the last ties with her care service, healthy and alive. She fights imaginatively and heartily for her clients, for their metabolism - the elementary processes of her life - for their courage to live and dignity. Lina is successful with her team of Engels care, but her work has a high price: her company is exposed to hostile takeover attempts, hacker attacks and recruitment - and she herself gets deeper and deeper into a psychological crisis: burnout. Her way back to herself seems infinitely difficult - and she would have to reinvent care: perhaps with a concept like Aurora that is meant to recreate people's zest for life and self-determination about their last days. In Berlin of the years 2015-2016, we follow the path of Lina Engels. She is accompanied by her friend Alma Berman, a clinical psychologist, by her new colleague Paule Jecker, the lawyer Werner Wohlgenannt and her team of dedicated carers - and an imagined parrot. She encounters an almost inexhaustible and fascinating variety of destinies, life threads, personalities and difficulties, people of different origins and life force - always new, changing substances.
