Field Gray Reviews
"Starred Review. Series aficionados and new readers alike will take comfort knowing that Kerr is hard at work on the next installment." - Publishers Weekly
"The plotting is twisty, the writing crisp, the atmosphere indisputably noir. Fans of hard-boiled PI novels and all readers interested in the dirty history of Nazi Germany will love this book. They don't come any better." - Library Journal
"An accomplished thriller." - Kirkus Reviews
"With great audacity, Kerr junks all the usual suspense techniques in a narrative that is less to do with a body count than with the protagonist's collusion with his corrupt society." - The Independent (UK)
"A thriller that will challenge preconceptions and stimulate the little grey cells." - The Times (London), selecting Field Gray as a Thriller of the Year
"Part of the allure of these novels is that Bernie is such an interesting creation, a Chandleresque knight errant caught in insane historical surroundings. Bernie walks down streets so mean that nobody can stay alive and remain truly clean." - John Powers, Fresh Air (NPR)
"Bernie Gunther is the most antiheroic of antiheroes in this gripping, offbeat thriller. It's the story of his struggle to preserve what's left of his humanity, and his life, in a world where the moral bandwidth is narrow, satanic evil at one end, cynical expediency at the other." - Philip Caputo, author of A Rumor of War
