Fourth in the Gregor Reinhardt series
THE WESTERN FRONT JULY 1918 Gregor Reinhardt is a young lieutenant in a stormtrooper battalion on the Western Front when one of his subordinates is accused of murdering a group of officers and then subsequently trying to take his own life Not wanting to believe his friend could have done what he is accused of Reinhardt begins to investigate He starts to uncover the outline of a conspiracy at the heart of the German army a conspiracy aimed at ending the war on the terms of those who have a vested interest in a future for Germany that resembles her past
The investigation takes him from the devastated front lines of the war to the rarefied heights of Berlin society and into the hospitals that treat those men who have been shattered by the stress and strain of the war Along the way Reinhardt comes to an awakening of the man he might be A man freed of dogma whose eyes have been painfully opened to the corruption and callousness all around him A man to whom calls to duty to devotion to the Fatherland and to the Kaiser ring increasingly hollow
Praise for the author Reinhardt is a terrific creation TIMES Book of the Month
