Publisher's summary

Bernie Gunther is back, in deeper trouble than ever in this new novel from the master of the historical thriller.

Summer, 1942. When Bernie Gunther is ordered to speak at an international police conference, an old acquaintance has a favour to ask. Little does Bernie suspect what this simple surveillance task will provoke....

One year later, resurfacing from the hell of the Eastern Front, Bernie receives another task that seems straightforward: locating the father of Dalia Dresner, the rising star of German cinema. And if escaping Berlin for a beautiful woman isn't motivation enough, there's the small matter of the request's origin: Goebbels himself.

But Dresner's father hails from Yugoslavia, a country so riven by sectarian horrors that even Bernie's stomach is turned. And meanwhile, the previous year's cold case lingers on, and there's only so long Bernie can stay away.

Bernie hasn't mellowed one iota, and his mordant wit and cynical observations are as sharp as ever. But even with monsters at home and abroad, one thing alone drives him on from Berlin to Zagreb to Zurich: Bernie Gunther has fallen in love.

Only a few books left!

I cannot rate these series of books enough. Bernie is such a human character. Flawed and brave and I always finish a book feeling a little sorry for him. Many stories, novels and film, seem to have a very good or evil type narrative when it comes to Nazis germany. But Bernie it seems to me exists within that grey zone where so many citizens of the third reich must have existed. Being a good man whilst also being a member of such an evil organisation as the SS.
The stories are immensely well researched and vivid. The narration is first class, I’d say the best I’ve heard. The narrators gravely voice gives me the impression of a life hard lived, too much schnapps and cigarettes.
My utmost admiration to Phillip Kerr for creating such a brilliant series.
The only other series I’ve consumed voraciously is the Flashman books. Tone is much different but again a highly flawed yet human character.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
