City of Shadows

As a killer stalks Weimar Berlin, a Russian woman with a mysterious past is drawn into an audacious scheme in this historical thriller.

Berlin, 1922. Scarred by the Great War, the German capital struggles to regain a glimmer of its former glory. Among the troubled city’s influx of refugees, Esther Solomonova survives by working for the charming, unscrupulous cabaret owner “Prince” Nick. But now she finds herself roped into his latest shady endeavor: passing off a young asylum patient as Grand Duchess Anastasia, the last surviving heir to the murdered czar of Russia.

Pulling off such a hoax could lead to a fortune. But their found “princess,” Anna Anderson, fears that she’s being hunted. And this may turn out to be more than paranoia when innocent people all around her begin to die.
