Description

The Glass Pearls is a gripping noir thriller by Emeric Pressburger, set against the backdrop of 1960s London. A man with a mysterious past, Karl Braun, navigates the city's hidden corners, where the lines between truth and deception are constantly blurred.

As Braun's nightmares intensify, he finds himself drawn to a woman and immersed in the city's vibrant cultural scene. But when the hunt for Nazi war criminals reaches a fever pitch, Braun's secrets begin to surface, threatening to upend his carefully constructed life.

This haunting and original novel is a dark and harrowing exploration of the past, with a tense and compelling narrative that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
