My first Bernie Gunther. I do not recommend it.

Convoluted, nonsense story with lots of characters that don't make any sense. Maybe I chose the wrong book in the series. I was pretty disappointed.

I'm a big fan of the Bernie Gunther series, but this one fell flat. I appreciated that change of scene and reading about the nazi emigration to Argentina, but this didn't really match up his previous tales. But it was still enjoyable enough to get through quickly, and I'm still looking forward to reading the next instalment. Hopefully that will see a return to his usual form.
