About this listen

July 1932. When a drowned man is found in a freight elevator in Haus Vaterland, the giant pleasure palace on Potsdamer Platz, Inspector Gereon Rath is called in to investigate. It’s not that Rath hasn’t problems enough. His hunt for a mysterious contract killer has been stalled for weeks, and his on-off lover, Charlotte Ritter, has just begun her probationary year with Berlin CID.

The corpse in Haus Vaterland looks to be part of a series of murders whose trail leads eastwards to the Polish border - and beyond.

Another story of Gereon Rath , the intrepid rebel detective in 1930’s Berlin . This one is a bit more far fetched than others

Enjoyable yarn outstanding narration

Gereon continues to chase the guilty. This in the latest of his adventures grips you from the beginning.

With his long suffering Charlie and his somewhat clouded relationship with his peers, it always makes for a great listen.

Looking forward to his next case.

Another great story.
