A MAN WITHOUT BREATH - Phillip Kerr




This is number nine in the 'Bernie Gunther' series.

Bernie is sent to Russia to uncover a massacre that has been committed by the Russians. Goebbels wants him to prove this for propaganda purposes. Along the way he gets involved with a murderer. The two stories run in tandem throughout the novel.

This is one of the best of the series and it kept me guessing to the last few pages.

High quality crime writing in an fact filled historical setting. Money well spent.

THE SECRET LIFE OF J.EDGAR HOOVER - Anthony Summers

  A man who abused his position like no other public servant in history.  A vile little man.
