Bernie Gunther is back on the beat - but not for long... The sweltering summer of 1938, and Bernie's trying his best to lay low. But on a seemingly straightforward stakeout, his new partner is killed, and Bernie suddenly finds himself trapped for a much bigger job. A serial sex murderer is killing Aryan teenage girls - and what's worse, he's making utter fools of the police. Bernie accepts a temporary post in Reinhard Heydrich's state Security Service, with a team of men underneath him tasked purely with hunting the killer. But can he trust his team any more than he can trust his superiors ? A gripping historical thriller, The Pale Criminal is the second novel in the iconic Berlin Noir series, and an unflinching examination of the grisly excesses of Nazi subculture and the social tensions that pervaded prewar Berlin.
