Customer Reviews

Deliriously wonderful tension and atmosphere

This is a break-out book. It was an Edgar nominee and deservedly so. The characters of the regular German Army officer and the Gestapo camp commandant are oil/water from their initial meeting as it would realistically have been. There is excellent detail in the descriptions and historical settings. The book builds to a gripping climax in parallel with the surrounding war. An excellent book with potential for an excellent screenplay, as well.
