Charlie Howard is back and robbing the city of Berlin blind, until he witnesses a murder being committed right before his eyes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCharlie Howard, part-time writer, part-time thief, has been engaged in a veritable spree of larceny and misappropriation since moving to Berlin, Germany. He's supposed to be working on his next novel. But high rent and a love for thrill-seeking has been hard on his word count.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut Charlie's larcenous binge is interrupted by the call to duty—on behalf of Her Majesty's Government. Four embassy employees are suspected of stealing a sensitive item. Charlie is to break into their homes, find the culprit and recover the stolen property. But there's a catch. The item is so sensitive, Charlie isn't told what he's looking for. Not its size, not its weight, nothing. He's only told that he'll recognize it when he sees it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCharlie has been a successful thief because he follows his own rules, the first being \"Don't get caught.\" Well, after he enters the first suspect's home, he has to add a new rule: \"Don't admire the view.\" As Charlie stares across the street, he sees something he really wishes he hadn't—a woman being murdered. And that's just for starters. What follows is a wild adventure in the former cauldron of spies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith \u003ci\u003eThe Good Thief's Guide to Berlin\u003c\/i\u003e, Chris Ewan shows why he was voted as one of America's favorite British authors by a \u003ci\u003eHuffington Post \u003c\/i\u003epoll.
