Why read it?
1 author picked The Amber Room as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This novel is a little outside of my usual genre, but Steve Berry never disappoints.
The reason I like this one is because Berry weaves so much factual detail about the real Amber Room’s creation and theft into his fictional suspense plot. Overall, he is really good at blending authentic history with his fictional adventure plots – making it hard for a reader to know what is fact and what if fiction.
This book kept me turning pages (long after I should have stopped).
From Jessica's list on thrillers that are set in real locations and connect a past event with the present.
