About this book

Book Summary

1933: A homeless veteran is found dead under railway arches in Berlin; apparently killed by an army dagger.

Gereon Rath is brought onto the case just as the Reichstag mysteriously burns down. Unsettled by the Nazis' tightening grip; he and Charlotte Ritter must also contend with their political colleagues. The new Germany is frightening; but police work must go on even among book-burning and marching; rising paranoia and fear.
