Mysteriöse Nächte in Regensburg

Overview
Kevin used to have a perfect life. Now, dumped by his popular girlfriend, Kevin leaves for a summer in Germany with his best friend, and his life seems anything but perfect. Taking classes he can’t understand, living with a very odd host-family, trying to get the attention of a girl with whom he has no chance, and dealing with a guy who has a dark side and who seems to be out to get him, Kevin escapes into a book and enters a world of long-ago adventures. As the boundaries between his two worlds begin to blur, Kevin discovers that nothing is as it appears…especially at night!
