From New York Times–bestselling author Philip
Kerr, the much anticipated return of Bernie Gunther in a
series hailed by The Daily Beast as “the best crime
novels around today.” Once I’d been a good detective in Kripo, but that was a
while ago, before the criminals wore smart gray uniforms and
nearly everyone locked up was innocent.” Being a Berlin cop
in 1942 was a little like putting down mousetraps in a cage
full of tigers. The war is over. Bernie Gunther, our sardonic former Berlin
homicide detective and unwilling SS officer, is now living
on the French Riviera. It is 1956 and Bernie is the go-to
guy at the Grand-Hotel du Cap-Ferrat, the man you turn to
for touring tips or if you need a fourth for bridge. As it
happens, a local writer needs just that, someone to fill the
fourth seat in a regular game that is the usual evening
diversion at the Villa Mauresque. Not just any writer.
Perhaps the richest and most famous living writer in the
world: W. Somerset Maugham. And it turns out it is not just
a bridge partner that he needs; it’s some professional
advice. Maugham is being blackmailed—perhaps because of his
unorthodox lifestyle. Or perhaps because of something in his
past, because once upon a time, Maugham worked for the
British secret service, and the people now blackmailing him
are spies. As Gunther fans know, all roads lead back to the viper’s
nest that was Hitler’s Third Reich and to the killing fields
that spread like a disease across Europe. Even in 1956,
peace has not come to the continent: now the Soviets have
the H-bomb and spies from every major power feel free to
make all of Europe their personal playground.
Bernard Gunter
