Book Recommendation: Prussian Blue by Philip Kerr

 

Prussian Blue (2017) is the latest historical crime fiction novel featuring Commissar Bernard Gunther (#12 in this series) by The New York Times bestselling British author Philip Kerr. Click on the links to learn more about the author and his books.

 

"For such a fat book — 528 dense pages — the 12th Bernie Gunther mystery is as brisk and agile as its German police detective protagonist. It moves back and forth between Nazi Germany in 1939 and the French Riviera in 1956, with two suspenseful tales that for a while seem unconnected but aren’t. Gunther is one of crime fiction’s most gratifyingly melancholy creations, and in “Prussian Blue” we watch him match wits with the officialdom of two Germanys, pre- and postwar. In both cases, there is plenty for Gunther to be melancholy about." - Richard Lipez, The Washington Post

Good morning Roy.  I'm on my last book and am looking for another one.  528 pages should take me about a month or better.....

Roy,

I love the idea of two tales that connect even though they seem unrelated.  Enjoy the weekend.  A
