Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Berlin, 1923. A defeated capital of a devastated nation. A city roiling with revolution and economic unrest. And stalked by a savage murderer. Dubbed 'Alpine Joe" by the police, he is killing the lower-class denizens of the Wedding District-whores, pimps, the elderly, the homeless. Equally adept with a gun or a knife, Alpine Joe is terrorizing the city with his vicious one-man crime spree. The man selected to stop him is Inspector Ernst Lohmann, a dedicated and humane policeman still fighting his own demons from the memories of the trenches of the Great War. "The Berlin Murder Squad" is the story of these two men and the story of a new age in history, populated with new criminals, new ideologies-and new monsters.
