Renascor
International Thriller
A man is not reborn when he survives. He is reborn when he chooses who he becomes. One violent attack changes everything.
A ruthless criminal empire. Buried secrets. Lives shattered in a single night. As old enemies emerge from the shadows, survival becomes more than a fight against death — it becomes a battle for identity.
Because sometimes surviving is only the beginning.
What remains for those who already possess everything? People are vanishing around Paris. No bodies. No witnesses. No evidence — every lead ends in a dead end.
Interpol uncovers a secret circle of the world's wealthiest elite, for whom money and power have long lost their meaning. At its center stands Le Gourmet — a former Legionnaire and master chef who stages terrifying private séances where every moral boundary has vanished.
The most dangerous monsters aren't hiding in the shadows. Sometimes they're seated at the finest tables.
What would you do if staying meant giving up your future? Would you leave everything behind — your home, your friends, your language, your identity?
A deeply personal story about courage, sacrifice, and the price of starting over. Between two countries, two cultures, and two versions of himself, one man must discover whether a person can truly build a new life without losing who they are.
Some sins can never be buried. Winter, 1944. Inside a Nazi concentration camp, one decision sets off a chain of events that will echo across generations.
When new evidence emerges decades later, a dangerous investigation begins. Hidden identities, forgotten documents, war criminals and powerful organizations collide in a deadly search for the truth — where every answer reveals a darker secret.
Some are still willing to kill to protect what was buried.
Some curses are inherited. Others are earned. And some never let go. When a dying sailor begins to tell the story of his life, a tale of survival becomes a journey through decades of secrets, betrayal, and impossible choices.
From communist Hungary to the open seas, from dangerous ports to forgotten battlefields, it takes readers on a breathtaking voyage across Europe and the Mediterranean toward a truth that has waited a lifetime to be revealed. Perfect for readers of Dan Brown and Steve Berry.
Is it all just coincidence… or is an ancient curse following him?

My Story
I was not born a writer. I was not born wealthy. And I certainly was not born extraordinary.
I was born in 1973 into a simple mining family in Hungary, then a socialist country. In my childhood, meat was not an everyday meal, and bananas were more common on television than on our table.
My parents' courage changed the course of my life. We moved to the capital, where my father served as a police officer. Honor, loyalty, and helping others became such a natural part of my upbringing that choosing a different path never truly crossed my mind.
Law enforcement became my life for many years. At the time, I had no idea that the human stories I witnessed during my service would one day find their way into my novels.
I saw hundreds of deaths. Hundreds of tragedies. Murders, violence, crime, and human lives falling apart. By the time we were called to a scene, common sense had often already left the room.
Later, I spent a year living in Detroit. I loved the city, but I never truly found my place there. After returning home, I joined the armed security service of a major international airport, where I once again felt that my work had real meaning.
Then life took another unexpected turn. My family and I moved to Germany's Black Forest to build a calmer and more predictable future. And that is when something unexpected happened — writing entered my life.
Home in the Black Forest — where the stories began.
At first, I simply shared my thoughts on social media. The audience grew faster than I ever imagined — until one day a fellow author called me and said:
“Write a book.”
My first attempts were far from perfect. But I refused to give up. After many sleepless nights, my first novel was born. Then came the second. Then the third. And the stories simply refused to leave me alone.
Since then, I have published eleven novels and sold more than 50,000 copies. Today, my books are read in at least ten countries.
I believe authenticity cannot be taught. I have witnessed human destinies. I have smelled the sweet scent of death. I have known fear — and I have learned how to master it and overcome it.
Perhaps that is why many readers feel they are not merely reading a story, but living inside it. My goal is not only to entertain — I want readers to step outside the machinery of everyday life for a while, and carry something real with them long after the final page.
