A sweeping novel set in postwar East Berlin, a city caught between political idealism and the harsh realities of Soviet occupation, from the author of "The Good German", "Los Alamos" and "Stardust". A young Jewish writer who fled the Nazis for America before the war now finds himself in the crosshairs of the McCarthy witch-hunts. Faced with deportation, he makes a desperate bargain with the fledgling CIA.
