The first in Philip Kerr's internationally bestselling and acclaimed Bernie Gunther series of thrillers, available for the first time as an individual ebook.

Ex-Berlin cop and private detective Bernie Gunther has seen his share of bad guys. But when the worst guys of all are the ones running the show, it's much harder to stay out of their reach.

Hired by a wealthy industrialist to investigate the murder of his daughter and her husband in an apparent botched robbery, Bernie soon finds himself drawn into the complex - not to mention lethal - internal politics and corruption of the Nazi party. When Herman Goering himself calls Bernie in with a task for him that throws his existing case into a whole new light, he must weigh up his hatred of the Nazis against his desire to stay alive.

Philip Kerr: March Violets (USA 2004)

From the Publisher:
The first of the classic Berlin Noir mysteries -- now in a evocative new package
Hailed by Salman Rushdie as a "brilliantly innovative thriller-writer," Philip Kerr is the creator of taut, gripping, noir-tinged mysteries that are nothing short of spellbinding. The first book of the Berlin Noir trilogy, March Violets introduces readers to Bernie Gunther, an ex-policeman who thought he¹d seen everything on the streets of 1930s Berlin -- until he turned freelance and each case he tackled sucked him further into the grisly excesses of Nazi subculture. Hard-hitting, fast-paced, and richly detailed, March Violets is noir writing at its blackest and best.

Philip Kerr: March Violets (1990)

From the Publisher:
When you're a private eye in pre-war Nazi Germany, even the simple cases can get you killed.
Private eye Bernhard Gunther has been doing a lot of missing person work -- a growth industry in Berlin, 1936, where people have a habit of disappearing. As Hitler's grasp on Germany tightens, Bernie takes on an apparently straightforward investigation into the dis appearance of a diamond necklace. He soon discovers, however, that in this corrupt landscape, nothing is routine.

From the grand homes of rich patriots to seedy Berlin nightclubs, from an overcrowded police morgue to the horrors of Dachau, Bernie begins to piece together a puzzle involving high-ranking Nazi politicos and an organized crime syndicate and discovers just how big this case really is. If he solves this one, he could be a rich man; if he doesn't, he could be dead.
