THE PALE HOUSE

German intelligence officer Captain Gregor Reinhardt has just been reassigned to a new branch of the military police with far-reaching powers. His position separates him from the allies he has made in the last two years, including a circle of fellow dissenting Germans who formed a rough resistance cell against the Nazis. Reinhardt witnesses a massacre of civilians in Yugoslavia, only to discover there is more to the incident than anyone believes. When five mutilated bodies turn up, he knows the stakes are growing more important - and more dangerous.
