PHILIP KERR - GEBRAUCHT FIELD GREY (BERNIE GUNT...

'One of the greatest anti-heroes ever written' LEE CHILD    'A man doesn't work for his enemies
unless he has little choice in the matter.'   So says Bernie Gunther. It is 1954 and Bernie is
in Cuba. Tiring of his increasingly dangerous work spying on Meyer Lansky  Bernie acquires a
boat and a beautiful companion and quits the island. But the US Navy has other ideas  and soon
he finds himself in a place with which he is all too familiar - a prison cell. After exhaustive
questioning  he is flown back to Berlin and yet another prison cell with a proposition: work
for French intelligence or hang for murder.   The job is simple: he is to meet and greet POWs
returning to Germany and to look out for one in particular  a French war criminal and member of
the French SS who has been posing as a German Wehrmacht officer. The French are anxious to
catch up with this man and deal with him in their own ruthless way. But Bernie's past as a
German POW in Russia is about to catch up with him - in a way he could never have foreseen.  
Bernie Gunther's seventh outing delivers more of the fast-paced and quick-witted action that we
have come to expect from Philip Kerr. Set in Cuba  a Soviet POW camp  Paris and Berlin  and
ranging over a period of twenty years from the Thirties to the Fifties  Field Grey is an
outstanding thriller by a writer at the top of his game.
