In war-torn Yugoslavia, a beautiful young filmmaker and photographer-a veritable hero to her people-and a German officer have been brutally murdered. Assigned to the case is military intelligence officer Captain Gregor Reinhardt. Already haunted by his wartime actions and the mistakes he's made off the battlefield, he soon finds that his investigation may be more than just a murder, and that the late Yugoslavian heroine may have been much more brilliant-and treacherous-than anyone knew. Maneuvering his way through a minefield of political, military, and personal agendas and vendettas, Reinhardt knows that someone is leaving a trail of dead bodies to cover their tracks. But those bloody tracks may lead Reinhardt to a secret hidden within the ranks of the powerful that they will do anything to keep. And his search for the truth may kill him before he ever finds it.… (altro)

Gregor Rhinehardt is a Captain in the Abwher during WWII. He served in WWI and also as a policeman in Berlin, but left when he could no longer stomach the Nazi police tactics. While serving in Sarajevo, he is tasked with investigating the murder of another Abwher member, Handel, and a photo journalist, Marija Vukic. Someone does not want him to succeed. ( )

The first in a series of books featuring Capt. Gregor Reinhardt. Reinhardt is an iron cross medalist from the Great War, where he was injured. On returning home he went to work for the Kripo (Berlin Police) and then the Abwehr (German military intelligence). Reinhardt is called to Sarejevo where another German military intelligence officer has been murdered along with a famous German female journalist; everybody's darling. Reinhardt has to contend with those who don't like him from the war and the police work, communists, partisans, Ustase, Croats, Serbs, Bosnians, Feldgendarmerie (German State Police?) and others! It was a real crime thriller. The first few chapters were a bit confusing in trying to keep all those organizations sorted and who worked for who, but it fell into place. I will read more of Capt. Gregor Reinhardt in the future. 426 pages ( )

Compelling story but hard not to make comparisons to Kerr's Gunther series. Not sure why it is called the Man From Berlin (easier to sell?) since the book is set in Bosnia. Enjoyable and atmospheric, looking forward to the rest of the series. ( )

Reinhardt is an ex-Berlin detective, now in the Abwehr in Sarajevo caught up in the murder of a woman journalist and a fellow officer. He's in the middle between partisans, local cops, Croats, Serbes, Communists, the army, and a former colleague who hates him. He's been through WWI and now his son is on the eastern front.

It's an intriguing story with just the right amount of setting detail. Reminiscent of Phillip Kerr's Gunther, this book is not as good as Kerr's original trilogy, but better than some of the later ones.

This may be one of those series where it's difficult to pass a final judgement until more than just the first book have been read, so I will move on to the second. ( )
