I enjoyed Ariana Franklin's 'Mistress of the Art of Death' series and wondered how she would do with a more contemporary setting. OMG, she absolutely nails it! This is an amazing book set in Berlin between the two world wars. I loved the characters and was intrigued by the plot. As the reader, you know where Berlin is headed once Hitler is made Chancellor but the characters are unaware of the full terror to come. It is a true page-turner.

I'm so sad this author died. I would have enjoyed reading more of her stories.
