I bought this tale of surveillance and love for a trip to Berlin. Leonard Marnham, the innocent, is a minor pawn in the games between West and East but discovers freedom and love in the divided city. It is very atmospheric of the period, both in place and people, but in the central twist I had to skip pages - too squeamish. The ending allows for a happier conclusion of the story.
