A Kaspar Brothers novel set during the aftermath of World War II in Germany from the author of The Losing Role and Lost Kin.
 
It’s May 1945, the war’s just over, and Harry Kaspar, an American captain in Germany, is about to take a new posting in the US occupation—running a Bavarian town named Heimgau. When Harry loses the command to Major Membre, he’ll do almost anything to win the job back.
 
Then Harry discovers a horrific scene—three German men tortured and murdered. He starts to think that solving the crime could teach the conquered townspeople about American justice, as well as help him reclaim that better posting. The only problem is that Harry’s quest for the real killer will lead him straight back to his commander, Membre, and eventually to his mentor, a can-do rebel US colonel named Spanner. Spanner is a gangster run rampant, plundering the war-torn land for all its grim worth.
 
Harry’s lover, a gutsy German actress, helps him realize he must fight back. Recognizing that absolute power corrupted—and then destroyed—Major Membre and Colonel Spanner, Harry takes it upon himself to help the terrorized town and its battered residents rise up from the ashes of a brutal, demoralizing war.

 “Brilliant [and] frightening . . . Steve Anderson has revealed the endgame of war, tinged with GI passion—a passion twisted to violence by so many who did not want to change.” —Maria Riva, New York Times–bestselling author of Marlene Dietrich
