  <default_description>Germany, 1949: Amid the chaos of defeat, it's a place of dirty deals, rampant greed, fleeing Nazis, and all the intrigue and deceit readers have come to expect from this immensely talented thriller writer. In &lt;i&gt;The One from the Other&lt;/i&gt;, Hitler's legacy lives on. For Bernie Gunther, Berlin has become too dangerous, and he now works as a private detective in Munich. Business is slow and his funds are dwindling when a woman hires him to investigate her husband's disappearance. No, she doesn't want him back-he's a war criminal. She merely wants confirmation that he is dead. It's a simple job, but in postwar Germany, nothing is simple-nothing is what it appears to be. Accepting the case,Bernie takes on far more than he'd bargained for, and before long, he is on the run, facing enemies from every side.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[This is a new addition to the Bernie Gunther series which are detective stories set in post WW2 Germany. I love them as they capture the atmosphere of the time and the place with its ex Nazi thugs and Americans vying for control in a war torn Germany. A useful companion to Gunther Grass]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This well-made thriller with a German narrator via a British author shows the machinations of war criminals and their fascist collaborators in postwar Germany.  Kerr obviously knows his WWII history, as historical characters and places are intermingled with fictitious ones.  For example, Eichmann ap...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/30595153">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I loved the Berlin Noir trilogy.  This fourth book in the series was a bit of let down. The plot was rather obvious and Kerr makes his P.I., Bernie Gunther, look naive both as a P.I. in general but in post-war Germany in particular.
