Description
Philip Kerr's Bernie Gunther novels have won him an international reputation as a master of historical suspense. In A GERMAN REQUIEM, the private eye has survived the collapse of the Third Reich to find himself in Vienna. Amid decaying imperial splendor, he traces concentric circles of evil and uncovers a legacy that makes the wartime atrocities seem lily-white in comparison. A GERMAN REQUIEM is the disturbing climax to the Berlin Noir trilogy.
