'One of the greatest anti-heroes ever written' LEE CHILD
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, a superior gives him another task that seems straightforward: locating the father of Dalia Dresner, the rising star of German cinema. Bernie accepts the job. Not that he has much choice - the superior is Goebbels himself.
But Dresner's father hails from Yugoslavia, a country so riven by sectarian horrors that even Bernie's stomach is turned. Yet 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.

Historischer Krimi in Nazi-Deutschland Anfang der 40er. Kerr beschreibt eindrücklich die Ambivalenz und den Zynismus einer Mordauflärung in Zeiten des Massenmordens. Teilweise sehr klischeehaft, erinnert an die Schwarze Serie der US-Krimiautoren in den 40ern. Inklusive Femme Fatale. Hab’s trotzdem sehr gern gelesen, weil ich historische Settings in Romanen sehr mag.
