Winter Work: A Novel

"What happens to spies when the world shakes? As a coda to the Cold War, the fall of the Berlin Wall signaled staggering geopolitical and social shifts. It also put the notorious East German spy apparatus known as the Stasi out of business, leaving a trove of sensitive secrets up for grabs and impacting the lives of millions. This political thriller-murder mystery beautifully intertwines the story of a crumbling nation and the people caught in its wake. At the center is an unusual yet sympathetic leading man, a disillusioned former spy with a complicated home life and a former boss who is found dead in the woods."
