A pulse-pounding locked-room murder mystery set on a zeppelin bound for Brazil from Nazi Germany--think Murder on the Orient Express in the air... <p/>"The ingenious [solution] is only one of many pleasures in this powerfully atmospheric novel" that can be easily devoured in a single night (The Times). <p/>In 1933, a zeppelin leaves Nazi Germany, chartered to cross the Atlantic and land in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It's a modern luxury holiday for travelers performing loyalty to a radicalizing Germany--until a murder in the airship's washroom exposes the rot beneath the Reich. <p/>Police Detective Bruno Brückner happens to be on board and is drafted to investigate, only to discover that the "Good Nazi" victim was a total fabrication. Hidden among his belongings is a stash of banned "degenerate" material. It seems everyone on board has something to hide, and even beyond Germany's border, no one is safe to voice what they may know. <p/>There are no good Nazis, not on this flight and not in the Fatherland. From the wealthy baroness to the antisemitic doctor, every passenger wears a mask of complicity or survival, and in this sky-high pressure cooker the truth is more dangerous than the fall. <p/>As Brückner peels back their lies, he uncovers a startling story of fake identities, queer love, and revenge, where nothing is as it appears, until finally the secret of the 'good Nazi' is revealed... <p/>Giving fascinating insight into the "twisted psyche of fascists" (The Critic) and 1930s queer culture under Nazi rule, this thrilling historical mystery will keep readers hooked until the final page.
