Simultaneously with this, her second novel Instances of the Number 3 was published in 2001 (German: Drei Spielarten der Liebe , 2003) and two years later Mr Golightly's holiday (2003; German: The temptations of Mr. Golightly , 2004). Her fourth novel, The Other Side of You , was published in 2006. By 2018, a total of 10 books with novels and stories were published.
