Summary

'You have a choice which way you go in this war...'

Paris, September 1940.

After three months under Nazi Occupation, not much can shock Detective Eddie Giral. That is, until he finds a murder victim who was supposed to be in prison. Eddie knows, because he put him there. The dead man is not the first or the last criminal being let loose onto the streets. But who is pulling the strings, and why?

This question will take Eddie from jazz clubs to opera halls, from old flames to new friends, from the lights of Paris to the darkest countryside - pursued by a most troubling truth: sometimes to do the right thing, you have to join the wrong side...

Excellent from start to finish

Gripping story, superbly narrated. Probably the best book I've listened to this year. If you enjoyed the Bernie Gunther novels I think you'll like this.

Dark and stormy

This is the second in a series about a WW2 French police officer. It’s a very strong plot with plenty of darkness and some great characters.
