On the Eve of Hitler's Olympics, Chief Inspector Nikolai Hoffner is
forced out of the Kriminalpolizei because he is a half Jew. Hoffner
is not surprised given the rise of Nazism, and anyway his focus is
elsewhere. His son Georg is missing in Spain, swept up in the
sudden outbreak of the civil war. He has already lost Sascha, his
elder son, to the Nazi regime. But Georg is not what he appears to
be, and when Hoffner discovers this, he is determined to save the
one son he can. The Second Son is the final installment in Jonathan
Rabb's Berlin trilogy, set between the two world wars. Now, nearly
ten years after the events of Shadow and Light, Hoffner finds
himself tossed into the chaos that is Spain - where he quickly
meets anarchists, Soviet and British secret agents, and a female
doctor called Mila Pera - as he follows a trail of clues left by
Georg. Rabb delivers another brilliant atmospheric work. On Rosa:
"a ghostly noir that could have been conspired at by Raymond
Chandler and Andre Malraux." Harper's On Shadow and Light (2009),
"brilliantly plotted narrative." Washington Post
