Product Information
A New York Times Bestselling AuthorIt's 1956 and Bernie Gunther, sardonic former Berlin homicide detective and unwilling SS officer, is living on the French Riviera. The go-to guy at the Grand-Hotel du Cap-Ferrat, he is sought out by a local writer who's being blackmailed. Not just any writer: it's W. Somerset Maugham. It is 1956 on the French Riviera. A world-weary Bernie Gunther is working as concierge at the Grand Hotel, St Jean Cap Ferrat, living under a false name. The Riviera retains its louche glamour even in these gloomy post-war years - a sunny place for shady people.Bernie plays bridge to stave off boredom and misses his old detective life. Then his past walks through the door in the shape of Harold Hennig, a former captain in the Nazi security service. Bernie never forgets a face, especially when it belongs to a mass murderer who, in 1945, was responsible for the deaths of thousands, among them a woman Bernie loved. Since the war, Hennig has enjoyed a lucrative career as a blackmailer.Product Identifiers
