About this listen

Berlin, 1938: Newly appointed military attaché Noel Macrae and his extrovert wife, Primrose, arrive at the British embassy. Prime Minister Chamberlain is intent on placating Nazi Germany, but Macrae is less so.

Gathering vital intelligence, Macrae is drawn to Kitty Schmidt's Salon - a Nazi bordello - and its enigmatic Jewish hostess, Sara Sternschein, who is a treasure trove of knowledge about the Nazi hierarchy in a city of lies, spies and secrets. Does she hold the key to thwarting Hitler?

This is a truly fantastic book. A gripping story wrapped around the events leading up to the second world war in Nazi Berlin. The characters are very well written. The Berlin of 1939 is so vivid with the writing. Really really worth a listen. Essential for anyone interested in this point in history. As an Englishman, a certain amount of shame also.

Top notch performance from Peter Noble. One of the best books I have downloaded in three years. Five stars.

Absolutely loved this book, the narrator was perfect and there was nothing I did not like about it.
A interesting story which will have you gripped from the start, hindsight is a wonderful thing but despite what transpired it is hard to listen to the blinkered and idiotic reactions of the British government and some of their staff.
The main characters are complex, often hugely flawed and fighting to be heard in a world that doesn't want to listen. Highly recommend.

A brilliant fast paced listen
