Once a British spy involved in a controversial loyalist shooting in Belfast, he spent time in Berlin infiltrating the Punk scene just before the Wall came down. Now in his thirties, he is a detective in the local police force.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe is struggling - two naked headless corpses were dredged from the Havel river. There are no clues apart from a single word tattooed in Cyrillic on their left arms and the fact they were found a week apart after Christmas at exactly the same spot.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVisiting his favourite swingers club, the seedy Der Zug, he comes across the bloated Lothar Blucher. Pressing his former Cold-War informer for help, Peters is instead led to a video showing the horrifically violent murder of a man tied to a chair. Not long after, a former girlfriend, Heike, gets in touch. She has received the same video - and rapidly the dead bodies start piling up at the hands of a demonic serial killer. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith crimes darker than The Killing and The Bridge, you will be riveted by this gripping Martin Peters story set in Berlin, Belfast and London.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gibson Square","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47152405938416,"sku":"9781783341160","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781783341160_p0.jpg?v=1763723410","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781783341160","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
