In the waning days of World War I, a horrific crime behind the lines sends Lieutenant Gregor Reinhardt on a search for a killer in this electrifying thriller from the author of The Man from Berlin.

It's the final days of the Great War and four years of grinding conflict has warped more than one man's mind. When a secret meeting of top brass is called, someone sets off a bomb that kills all the attendees. It looks for sure that one of the men in Gregor Reinhardt's company is the culprit. But since that man killed himself, the General is looking for someone else to share the blame. Reinhardt must prove his trooper innocent if he hopes to avoid the fate of a co-conspirator.

The search for answers leads Reinhardt deep into a potential conspiracy populated by mutinous soldiers, a mysterious Russian nobleman, and a pair of doctors who may be doing more than treating battlefield injuries. The trenches are home to any number of horrors, but what if the greatest danger is right next to you?

Critic reviews

“This book is worth reading just for its visceral evocation of trench warfare, but there are also complex characters and a labyrinthine murder mystery to enjoy. And all beautifully written.”
—David Downing, critically acclaimed author of Wedding Station

“A weighty war novel whose mystery reflects the synergy between the political and personal....Series fans should enjoy his portrait of the younger, more impulsive Reinhardt.”
Kirkus Reviews

This felt like a long listen but worth the time. There are many many characters and even with the great John Lee narrating, I found it difficult to keep up with all of them (german pronounciation mostly). That was until I thought of going to the preview of the paperback version and there is a list of all the main characters. That helped so much. Hope the auther keeps the series going. Miss Bernie Gunther a lot and this is the closest I've found to that series.

Very much like the earlier (later) Reinhartd books

I bought the hard cover first at DOLLAR TREE by chance and it was so good that I bought the audio book immediately! I've laughed, gasped and reeled during the whole thing and hence my surprise when I found out this was book 4! 😂 Lol.

CRAZY GOOD STORY

Another anxiously awaited in the Gregor Rhinehart series. I only wish I could start the next episode now.

great listen

The issue up front with the book is its large introduction of many characters, all in German names. If you are not paying attention, it’s hard to follow. This sorts itself out as the book goes on and the listener has fewer characters to track. In the end it is an intricate story of murder and intrigue. Just as Reinhardt thinks he has a bead on it, there is another twist. The author keeps twisting right up to the end. I enjoyed the listener and the narrator keto things moving at a good pace.

Frustrating Start
