"A disturbing, menacing novel . Strongly recommended for all
readers interested in this era or in a free press. Fans of Rebecca
Cantrell's "Hannah Vogel" series will recognize the bleak
atmosphere" - Library Journal Starred Review, September PICK OF THE
MONTH In a world of growing nationalism, a quiet few are determined
to resist. This gripping historical mystery explores the darkest
days of the early 20th century. Munich, 1920. Detective Willi
Geismeier has a problem: how do you uphold the law when the law
goes bad? The First World War has been lost and Germany is in
turmoil. The new government in Berlin is weak. The police and
courts are corrupt. Fascists and Communists are fighting in the
streets. People want a savior, someone who can make Germany great
again. To many, Adolf Hitler seems perfect for the job. When the
offices of a Munich newspaper are bombed, Willi Geismeier
investigates, but as it gets political, he is taken off the case.
Willi continues to ask questions, but when his pursuit of the truth
itself becomes a crime, his career - and his life - are in grave
danger.
