Is it me, or does Death on the Reik provide absolutely no motivation for the players to engage with the adventure past Altdorf? My eyes are weird so I may be missing something, but are there built-in plot hooks or is this something I’m supposed to come up with myself (which I’ll happily do, but I don’t want to derail future books if there’s something I’m supposed to do).

No, you are correct. Rest of the campaign remains like this. Either work on hooks from the PCs as obvious as “desire to fight chaos wherever I find it”, tell the players that the campaign makes no sense so suspend their disbelief and go with it, or give up and run your own campaign. It doesn’t get better.

I mean, the actual content is great and I’m good to come up with my own hooks. I was just afraid I was missing something because of my eye problems.

You are not missing anything. Best way to run it is to tailor jooks to the characters.

No the hooks are weak in it but the content is good. Give your party a reason to chase Etelka and give them a hard link to the von Wittgenstein Castle once they get her and you should be good.
