A really good spy thriller. John Russell, a British/American journalist living in Germany before the outbreak of WW2, sees things going from bad to worse, and gets caught up in a swirl of events when he realizes he can't just stand by. No egregious gore because we all know what the Nazis did - but their ordinary everyday nastiness is not overlooked. The suspense builds until I was racing through the last pages to see what happened. For suspense and a sense of the times, I would highly recommend this book.
