  • "En 1948, dans la capitale d'un pays de l'Est, Emil Brod, vingt-deux ans, tout juste entré à la brigade criminelle, est chargé d'enquêter sur le meurtre d'un célèbre chanteur. Très vite, il comprend que ce crime a des implications politiques, que seul un voyage à Berlin pourra éclairer..."
  • "It's August, 1948, three years after the Russians "liberated" the nation from German Occupation. But the Red Army still patrols the capital's rubble-strewn streets, and the ideals of the Revolution are but memories. Twenty-two-year-old Detective Emil Brod finally gets his chance to serve his country, investigating murder for the People's Militia. The first victim is a state songwriter, but the facts point to a political motive. Emil would like to investigate further, but his colleagues in Homicide are suspicious or silent: He is on his own in this new, dangerous world. The Bridge of Sighs launches a unique series of crime novels featuring a cast of characters in an ever-evolving landscape, the politically volatile terrain of Eastern Europe in the second half of the 20th century. The Bridge of Sighs is a 2004 Edgar Award Nominee for Best First Novel."@en
  • "Investigating murders for the post-World War II People's Militia, Emil Brod suspects political motives behind the killing of a state songwriter and finds himself accused of spying by his corrupt colleagues in the homicide department."
  • "An inexperienced homicide detective struggles amid the lawlessness of a post-WWII Eastern European city."@en
