Hailed by Salman Rushdie as a "brilliantly innovative thriller-writer", Philip Kerr is the creator of taut, gripping, noir-tinged mysteries set in Nazi-era Berlin that are nothing short of spellbinding. The first book of the Berlin Noir trilogy, March Violets introduces listeners to Bernie Gunther, an ex-policeman who thought he'd seen everything on the streets of 1930s Berlin - until he turned freelance and each case he tackled sucked him further into the grisly excesses of Nazi subculture.

The murderee is Nicola Six, a "black hole" of sex and self-loathing who is intent on orchestrating her own extinction. The murderer may be Keith Talent, a violent lowlife whose only passions are pornography and darts; or the rich, honorable, and dimly romantic Guy Clinch. As Nicola leads her suitors towards the precipice, London--and, indeed, the whole world--seems to shamble after them in a corrosively funny novel of complexity and morality.

This lush novel, set in 1766 England and America, evokes an era ripe with riot and revolution, from the teeming streets of London to the sprawling grounds of a Virginia plantation. Mack McAsh burns with the desire to escape his life of slavery in Scottish coal mines while Lizzie Hallim is desperate to shed a life of sheltered subjugation to her spineless husband. United in America, their only chance for freedom lies beyond the Western frontier - if they're brave enough to take it.

In this short, spellbinding book, international best-selling author Ken Follett describes the emotions that gripped him when he learned about the fire that threatened to destroy one of the greatest cathedrals in the world - the Notre-Dame de Paris. Follett then tells the story of the cathedral, from its construction to the role it has played across time and history, and he reveals the influence that the Notre-Dame had upon cathedrals around the world and on the writing of one of Follett's most famous and beloved novels, The Pillars of the Earth.

Forgettable
There is a reason why any reader knows 100 famous authors and no more because to tell a good story that is well written is a magical feet reserved for the elite few like Ken Follette this book, one of his earliest writings 1977 was an exercise in confusion. The premise was rather dated of course 50 years ago and

Seriously?
I love most anything by Ken Follett but this one sort of missed the mark for me. The story was mediocre and seemed unfinished. When it ended I literally exclaimed as it seemed so abrupt. It missed Follett’s typically unparalleled character development.

Disappointed
I absolutely love Ken Follet but this book was not his best. It’s like he didn’t really finish the book.

Keeble makes this book!
I can see why Follett fans would not like this book it’s totally different from his main body of work but I loved it and that had much to do with Jonathan Keeble and his fabulous narration. One of my top favorite narrators his voice gets me to read things I normally wouldn’t read. I can’t recommend the book nor will I pan the book… all books can find fans or those who a left disappointed you’ll have to just try it and see for yourself .🤷♀️

Very Good!
Ken Follett always delivers. This story was a departure from his others, my only complaint is that it was too short.
