The Other Side of Silence (A Bernie Gunther Novel)

When Bernie Gunther takes on a blackmail case and gets involved in the affairs of British spies, the former detective risks exposing his own dark past in thisÂ thrilling novel hailed by The New York Times Book Review as â€œone of Kerrâ€™s best.â€
Â
Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, 1956. Having gone into hiding in the French Riviera, Bernie Gunther is working as aÂ concierge at the Grand-HÃ´tel under a false name. His days and nights consist of maneuvering drunks to their rooms, shooing away prostitutes in search of trade, and answering the mindless questions posed by the absurdly rich guestsâ€”needless to say, heâ€™s miserable. Now, the man who was once a homicide detective and unwilling SS officer in Hitlerâ€™s Third Reich is simply the person you turn to for touring tips or if you need a bridge partner.

As it just so happens, a rich and famous writer needs someone to fill the fourth seat in a regular game at the Villa Mauresque. But Somerset Maugham wants Bernie to help him get out of a game far more dangerous than bridge.Â Maugham is being blackmailedâ€”perhaps because of his unorthodox lifestyle, or perhaps because, once upon a time, Maugham worked for the British Secret Service...
