If The Dead Rise Not (Bernard Gunther, #6)If The Dead Rise Not by Philip Kerr
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is divided into two parts, almost two different books with the same characters. It shows how characters can grow and mature in the hands of a great writer. The characters really come to life and with the clever blend of real history and Philip Kerr's exciting story. Although I did figure this one out before the last page, it was still a very well constructed mystery with great character development. All in all I loved it.

A Quiet Flame (Bernard Gunther, #5)A Quiet Flame by Philip Kerr
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a great book. It is a terrific mystery but has so much fascinating history. Some of it I knew, some was a bit of a revelation. Bernie is getting to be a strong character with such a complicated past and as of this minute, an interesting future. I can hardly wait to see what he does next.

The One from the Other (Bernard Gunther, #4)The One from the Other by Philip Kerr
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is Bernie at his best. A story with twists and turns and filled with interesting characters. Don't skip the acknowledgments at the end. At one point I almost put the book down because the plot was too thick and obtuse. Then I realized that it was supposed to be that way. Bernie gets confused and sorts it out with just a few clues. Can't wait for the next one.
