Produktbeschreibung

Paris during the early part of the 21st Century: dark with fog, riots over police killings, and Far Right demagogues. Here state criminal investigator Stanislas Cassel works at the Palace of Justice. Ashamed he's a grandson of a French Nazi collaborator during Germany's WWII Occupation of France, he avoids anything political. Instead he buries himself, solving small crimes.One dossier involves a pensioner's bizarre murder. During his investigation, Cassel meets a beautiful Jewish woman, whose family the Germans killed. Haunted by this, she tries to alert him to the Far Right's re-emergence, but to no avail.Tragedy strikes. He awakes to his blindness and understands a murderous evil, larger than his small crimes, as the Occupation portended, lurks. This awakening motivates him to get to the heart of the pensioner's death. Murder Without Pity, a mystery story about the past, the present, betrayal, murder, redemption.

Autorenporträt

Steve earned a B. A. Degree from the University of Texas in Austin, majoring in political science and minoring in history. Afterwards he passed his stock broker's exam and worked for a time at a brokerage house before returning to school. Upon getting his legal assistant certification from UCLA, he worked at a law firm in Los Angeles. Successful stock market investments allowed him to retire early and to pursue two dreams, writing and foreign travel, and he has since traveled extensively and frequently to Europe. He speaks some French, a little less Italian, and four words in German and hopes to expand his fluency in all three languages. He enjoys the cosmopolitan bustle, sidewalk cafes, the museums of Berlin, Rome, Vienna, London, Budapest, and Paris. Many of these capitals find their way into his stories of intrigue..."Murder Without Pity" (Paris), "The Killing Ploy" (London, Berlin, Paris, and Lugano) and the soon-to-be-released "Darkness and Blood" (London and Paris) and "Winston Churchill's Renegade Spy" (London and Zurich). He's also researching for a fifth novel, this one to be set in 1946 Berlin. I
