Description
The Black Sun by James Twining is a gripping mystery that weaves together three seemingly unrelated crimes. A vicious gang breaks into the National Cryptologic Museum in Maryland, stealing a Nazi Enigma machine, while an Auschwitz survivor is murdered in his bed, with his killers making off with a macabre trophy - his severed left arm. In Prague, a painting is stolen from a synagogue, only to reappear alongside the human arm. As former art thief Tom Kirk investigates these puzzling thefts, he uncovers a trail of clues that lead him on a perilous journey through Europe and beyond. The Black Sun emblem seems to be at the heart of it all, drawing Tom into a world of sinister forces and deadly enemies. With his life hanging in the balance, Tom must navigate treacherous landscapes and confront his own troubled past. As the stakes grow higher, Tom finds himself trapped in a desperate game where the greatest prize is survival itself.
