A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Berlin, 1927. When a studio executive at Ufa the home of German Cinema is found dead in his office bathtub, Herr Kriminal Oberkomissar Nikolai Hoffner is determined to uncover the truth behind what he firmly believes is murder. With the help of Fritz Lang, and Alby Pimm, the leader of the most powerful crime syndicate in Berlin, Hoffner finds his case taking him beyond the world of film and into the far more treacherous landscape of Berlin s sex and drug trade, the rise of Hitler s Brownshirts, and the even more astonishing attempts by onetime monarchists to rearm a post-Versailles Germany. SHADOW AND LIGHT is an electrifying thriller set in a darkly beautiful Berlin poised on the edge of destruction.
