Why read it?
1 author picked The Ratcatcher of Berlin as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Stejskal’s ‘The Ratcatcher’ is a tight, hard-edged pursuit through 1957 Berlin, where a CIA officer and a Special Forces operative hunt a murderer across the border of East and West Berlin.
