Description
Berlin Noir: The First Three Bernie Gunther Novels by Philip Kerr. In this gripping collection, hard-boiled detective Bernie Gunther navigates the dark underbelly of 1930s Berlin. Ex-policeman turned freelance investigator, Bernie has seen his fair share of violence and corruption on the streets, but each new case brings him deeper into the heart of Nazi subculture. As he delves into the city's decaying splendour, Bernie uncovers a legacy that makes the wartime atrocities seem almost palatable. This volume includes the first three novels in Philip Kerr's acclaimed series: March Violets, The Pale Criminal, and A German Requiem. With their gritty realism and atmospheric setting, these novels offer a unique glimpse into one of history's most complex and troubled periods.
