About this listen

For Lieutenant Reim of the Stasi, life in East Berlin is a satisfying blend of days behind a desk and nights in front of a bottle.

But, when a senior officer has a messy affair, it falls to Reim to do the clearing up.

It should be a straightforward job; lean on a few people to get them to shut up, intimidate neighbors, bribe officials, and appeal to the socialist conscience of party members. But, when Reim starts his interrogations, he realizes his boss is hiding more than just a lover.

Lieutenant Reim begins to investigate his superior - and what he uncovers puts his own life at risk.

Cracking DDR crime from the author of the East Berlin series.

Unfortunately this was not the story was somewhat confusing and the choice of the narrator did not help.
Not sure if something got lost in the translation but it struggled to keep my interest.

I struggled with this narration

This could have been so much more but I had to stop it as the monotone narrator ruined the story for me. There was no characterisation in the voice and it was read at one level. I will have to get a kindle version of it so I can enjoy the novel.

Wrong narrator which is a complete shame
