Joseph Kanon

Joseph Kanon, author of both Los Alamos and Prodigal Spy has written a historical murder novel titled "The Good German."

In the days of 1945 Berlin, amidst the rubble, the deprivation on one side and excess on the other, a Press Correspondent Jake Geismar is searching for his pre-war love. During this quest, an American soldier is murdered and Jake begins to follow leads, not for just a story to file, but in a personal search for answers and for a measure of justice.

His personal and professional search soon become intertwined and rife with complications.

"The Good German" depicts murder, love, espionage, intrigue and the beginnings of the Cold War all set within descriptions of physical devastation and moral dilemmas not only of the city, but of its people and those who conquered it.
