Death Zones Simon Pasternak

In the lawless killing fields of the Eastern Front, SS Oberleutnant Hoffmann is on a mission to find a murderer. Belorussia, July 1943. As the Battle of Kursk rages to the east and the tide turns against the Nazi offensive, large swathes of White Russia are declared death zones - and a terrifying onslaught is unleashed on the civilian population. German detective Oberleutnant Heinrich Hoffmann, posted to the brutal fringes of a crumbling Reich, is struggling to keep his focus, as his thoughts stray to Eline back in Hamburg. But when a visiting General and his wife are found murdered and mutilated, Heinrich is charged with finding the culprit, at whatever cost. His only witness: a six-year-old local girl. In the man hunt that follows, Heinrich struggles to retain his humanity in the face of shifting loyalties, violence, and deadly SS politics, in the wild bloodlands between Berlin and Moscow. It is the winner of the Danish Crime Book Award.

Death Zones Bewertungen

"A stunning, dark and frighteningly authentic crime thriller. Death Zones is set in 1943, first on the eastern front and then in Hamburg. Simon Pasternak manages to convey the sheer horrors of both time and place in such a skilful manner that at times the book is hard to read yet impossible to put down" -- Alex Gerlis, author The Best of Our Spies and The Swiss Spy "Excellent" -- Natasha Harding Sun "Haunting... compelling" -- Nick Rennison Sunday Times "Pasternak is a talented writer and vividly recreates the unbearable horrors inflicted by the Nazis... Death Zones is skilfully done" -- Antonia Senior The Times "A dark, twisted world of corruption and deception... Pasternak is unflinching in his portrayal of the period's brutality, which is reflected in the invariably violent characters and the occasional raving sadists who occupy it" Real Crime
