ⓘ About Christopher Reich

Published in 2001 on the 9th of October, this was the second book from Christopher Reich which was also to top the New York Times bestseller list. In it he brings his readers into the setting of post-World War 2 Germany, which acts as a backdrop to the novels events. Devlin Judge is to fly to Europe to attend the trial of Nazi war criminals at a tribunal in July, 1945. The thing is, he has plans of his own; to attempt to find the man responsible for the death of his brother, one Erich Siegfried Seyss.
