{"product_id":"2940169350036","title":"Straight Into Darkness","description":"\u003cb\u003eAs night descends, a killer awaits¿\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e With ten consecutive \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestsellers, Faye Kellerman is truly a \"master of mystery\" (\u003ci\u003eCleveland Plain Dealer\u003c\/i\u003e). Now she turns her acute eye on 1920s Munich, a war-wounded city rocked by political agitation and stalked by a nameless, barbaric butcher. \u003cbr\u003e Lustmord-the joy of murder. The terrifying concept seems apt for the brutal slaying of a beautiful young society wife dumped in the vast English Garden. Homicide inspector Axel Berg is horrified by the crime¿and disturbed by the artful arrangement of the victim's clothes and hair -a madman's portrait of death. \u003cbr\u003e Berg's superiors demand quick answers and a quick arrest: a vagrant, the woman's husband, anyone who can be demonized will do. When a second body is discovered, the city erupts into panic, the unrest fomented by the wild-eyed, hate-mongering Austrian Adolf Hitler and his Brownshirt party of young thugs. \u003cbr\u003e Berg can trust no one as he relentlessly hunts a ruthless killer, dodging faceless enemies and back-alley intrigue, struggling to bring a fiend to justice before the country-and his life-veer straight into darkness.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47179110056176,"sku":"2940169350036","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940169350036_p0.jpg?v=1763680625","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940169350036","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
