Blackmail, espionage and a mass murderer from his wartime past await Bernie Gunther on the French Riviera.
'A brilliantly twisting tale of espionage and betrayal' Sunday Times
The French Riviera, 1956. A world-weary Bernie Gunther is working under a false name as a hotel concierge. His attempts to keep his nose clean go horribly awry when a wartime acquaintance sucks him into a blackmail plot involving Somerset Maugham, one of the most famous British writers of the 20th century, and the notorious Cambridge Spies. All of them have dark pasts and plenty to hide - ideal candidates for a seasoned blackmailer.

Condición: Como nuevo. : En la Riviera francesa de 1956, un hastiado Bernie Gunther trabaja como conserje en un hotel de lujo bajo una identidad falsa. Su intento de mantenerse al margen se complica cuando un conocido de la guerra lo involucra en un complot de chantaje que involucra a Somerset Maugham, uno de los escritores británicos más famosos del siglo XX, y a los espías de Cambridge. Todos tienen oscuros pasados y mucho que ocultar, lo que los convierte en candidatos ideales para un chantajista experimentado. Bernie extraña su antigua vida de detective cuando su pasado llama a su puerta en la forma de Harold Hennig, un excapitán del servicio de seguridad nazi, el hombre que, en 1945, fue responsable de la muerte de miles de personas, entre ellas una mujer a la que Bernie amaba. Hennig ahora disfruta de una lucrativa carrera como chantajista. El objetivo de Hennig en la Costa Azul es un famoso residente con un pasado oscuro y mucho que ocultar: el escritor, Somerset Maugham.
