When a second body isdiscovered, the city erupts into panic, the unrest fomented by the wild-eyed,hate-mongering Austrian Adolf Hitler and his Brownshirt party of youngthugs.Berg can trust no one as he relentlessly hunts a ruthless killer,dodging faceless enemies and back-alley intrigue, struggling to bring a fiend tojustice before the country-and his life-veer straight intodarkness.
