MEET DETECTIVE GEREON RATH IN THE BOOKS THAT INSPIRED THE HIT TV
SERIES BABYLON BERLIN 'A gripping evocative thriller set in
Berlin's seedy underworld during the roaring Twenties.' -Mail on
Sunday Babylon Berlin is the first book in the
international-bestselling series from Volker Kutscher. Detective
Inspector Gereon Rath is caught up in a web of drugs, sex,
political intrigue, deception and murder as Germany teeters on the
edge of Nazism. In 1929, Berlin is the vibrating metropolis of
post-war Germany, full of bars, brothels and dissatisfied workers.
Arriving in disgrace from Cologne, Gereon Rath is assigned to the
Vice Squad. When a body bearing traces of torture turns up in the
canal, Rath sees a chance to earn his way back into the homicide
division. As he investigates, he discovers a gang of exiled
Russians intent on purchasing arms with smuggled gold - but others
are trying to get hold of the gold... and the guns. Finding himself
up against both paramilitaries and organised criminals, Rath is so
far in over his head that he misuses the insider knowledge of
Charlotte, a typist in the homicide squad, to get ahead in his
investigation. Even though he's falling in love with her. As Rath's
mistakes and enemies pile up, he becomes the prime suspect in the
murder - and he's running out of time to clear his name. About the
Gereon Rath Mysteries 1930s Berlin is a hotbed of vice and
organised crime. When Inspector Gereon Rath leaves Cologne to join
Berlin's murder squad, he cannot begin to imagine the brutality and
complexity of the world he is stepping into as communists and Nazis
struggle for power.
