Philip Kerr encontró la fórmula mágica de la novela negra histórica para un público exigente: aventuras, toneladas de erudición y no poco humor negro al servicio de un personaje carismático y moralmente incólume. Con la primera novela de Philip Kerr, Violetas de marzo, también debutó su peculiar detective, Bernie Gunther, un exagente de la Kripo -la temida policía criminal del III Reich- especializado en buscar a personas desaparecidas. En su Trilogía berlinesa, Kerr combina magistralmente el género negro con el escenario histórico del auge y el hundimiento del nacionalsocialismo. Su trabajo de documentación sobre la Alemania nazi es impresionante, y abarca desde las costumbres y la cultura hasta la historia y la política. El Holocausto y la guerra aparecen recreados con crudeza en este peregrinaje del investigador privado por la ciudad de Berlín, el frente ruso de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la Viena de la posguerra.
The second Aimée Leduc investigation set in Paris When Anaïs de Froissart calls Parisian private investigator Aimée begging for help, Aimée assumes the woman wants to hire her to do surveillance on her philandering politician husband again. Aimée is too busy right now to indulge her. But Anaïs insists Aimée must come, that she is in trouble and scared. Aimée tracks Anaïs down just in time to see a car bomb explode, injuring Anaïs and killing the woman she was with. Anaïs can’t explain what Aimée just witnessed. The dead woman, Anaïs says, is Sylvie Coudray, her cheating husband’s long-time mistress, but she has no idea who wanted her dead, and Anaïs officially hires Aimée to investigate. As she digs into Sylvie Coudray’s murky past, Aimée finds that the dead woman may not be who Anaïs thought she was. Her Belleville neighborhood, full of North African immigrants, may be hiding clues to Sylvie’s identity. As a prominent Algerian rights activist stages a hunger protest against new immigration laws, Aimée begins to wonder whether Sylvie’s death was an act of terrorism, and who else may be at risk.
