Leaving Berlin
Advanced readers copy in very good condition. Slight wear to cover and spine.
“He was the first young man Alex had met since he arrived, all the others buried or missing, irretrievable. Then a few dragging steps and Alex saw why: a Goebbels clubfoot had kept him out of war.”
Alex Meier, a young Jewish writer, fled the Nazis for America before the war. He makes a desperate bargain with the fledgling CIA to act as their agent in his native Berlin. Things go wrong from the start. A kidnapping misfires, and East German agent is killed, and Alex finds himself a wanted man. Worse, he discovers that his real assignment is to spy on the woman he left behind.
