Published in May to coincide with the author's appearance at Bristol Crime Festival and the international television series, Babylon Berlin directed by Tom Tykwer and starring Volker Bruch and Liv Lisa Fries. Full publicity campaign by Ruth Killick Publicity and will be accompanied by author appearances, press and broadcast media.
Volker Kutscher was born in 1962 in Lindlar, West Germany. He is the author of the enormously successful Gereon Rath crime series which, in addition to compelling narrative, is notable for its scrupulous accuracy on Germany in the years between its beginning in 1927 and the approach to the Second World War.
‘Set in atmospheric 1930s Berlin where a maverick detective is
hunting a serial killer The Silent Death, like its predecessor,
Babylon Berlin, owes much to its author’s commitment to historical
accuracy and the cynical feel of the times.’
*Peter James*
‘Wonderfully atmospheric... a novel that offers vivid insights into
the cultural upheavals of the late Weimar republic.’
*The Sunday Times*
‘A particularly atmospheric and immersive thriller.’
*The Herald*
‘Accessible, exciting, and bloody hard to put down.’
*The AU Review*
‘A tale from the origins of the European darkness.’
*Kati Hiekkapelto*
‘This second outing for Inspector Gereon Rath of the Berlin police
is an even faster paced and gripping story... Well paced and
superbly written. ’
*Journal of the Law Society of Scotland*
