The Stasi, one of Germany's most formidable intelligence serives is unable to prevent the rebellion that ends in the fall of the Berlin Wall. This novel recounts the last few weeks leading to the fall of the Wall. Dr Rudi Rosenharte, formerly a member of the Stasi, is sent to rendezvous with a dead woman, his old lover Annalise Schering, but only Rudi knows that she is dead. Who is this imposter? To make sure that Rudi keeps the appointment, the Stasi have imprisoned his family. Rudi soon finds himself in hot water as four intelligence agencies encircle him. This is an espionage thriller, in which the games of manipulation have never been more authentic. It tells the story of twin brothers held captive by German history. As the heroic struggle unfolds on the streets of Leipzig and moves to a miraculous climax at the Wall, Rosenharte learns the painful secrets of love and of his own past...
