The Lady from Zagreb - Philip Kerr

A detective novel of the hard-boiled noir variety.  Well-written from a style point of view and follows the model closely.  Set in Germany during the Nazi period - an interesting background for detective fiction.  Well-researched - learned some new things about the period.  An entertaining read, but not a lot of depth, apart from the irony of crime fiction in a time when the biggest criminals were the government itself.
