Katja Samt was born in Lübeck, went to elementary school in Heidelberg and Austria, and voluntarily attended an all-girl boarding school in Bavaria for seven years. Today, Katja Samt and her family live in Munich and the surrounding regions. Drums Beating, Trumpets Sounding is her second volume about Josie Eckstein.
The Eckstein family is moving: From Heidelberg to a Bavarian one-horse town in the middle of nowhere. This is not, at all, what 11-year-old Josie had imagined.
