The elegant lie / Sam Eastland.

Eastland, Sam, (author.).

Summary:

The year is 1949. In the bombed-out ruins of Cologne, Hanno Dasch is king - director of the most successful black market operation in post-war Germany. A disgraced American Army officer, Nathan Carter, is recruited to approach Dasch and to ingratiate himself with promises of stolen army supplies and as Carter moves further and further into the labyrinth of Dasch's world, it soon becomes clear that the black market ring has already been compromised, but by someone even more dangerous than the Russians.
