Hitler's Peace

An uncannily convincing thriller of alternate history in the tradition of Fatherland Drawing on the rich historical knowledge he brought to his Berlin Noir trilogy, Philip Kerr constructs his most ambitious novel to date. In 1943, Roosevelt, Churchill, and Stalin met in Tehran to plot the endgame of the war and set the terms of a German surrender. But what if Hitler was canny enough to realize that he could no longer win the war and was putting out peace feelers? And what if his offer threatened to destroy the alliance against him? With its time bomb of a plot and magisterial command of atmosphere, Hitler’s Peacetakes the historical thriller into new territory.

Named early in his career as one of Granta-'s Best Young English Novelists, Philip Kerr is the author of eleven critically acclaimed thrillers, including A Philosophical Investigation and the Berlin Noir trilogy.
