"A lucid, deeply exciting spy novel set in Berlin in the last days before the Berlin Wall divided East and West. The city comes alive in Flanders's telling - the damp smell of a city where love and danger sleep in the same bed; neatly plotted betrayals among Cold War spies; hours of patient surveillance punctuated by the terror of passing soldiers. A cool, knowing thriller that puts Flanders in the company of Joseph Kanon and Alan Furst."

-- Paul Vidich, author of The Good Assassin

"Jefferson Flanders has done it again...another crisp and engaging Cold War-era novel that exudes authenticity in its plot lines and compelling narrative. As such, one is seduced by the story, its intrigues, romances and betrayals, and ultimately, its lessons. I've never known Berlin better."

-- Eva Dillon, author of Spies in the Family.

"Excellently written, with a journalist's eye for detail and character, An Interlude in Berlin will appeal to fans of historical thrillers, for sure, but also thriller fans in general."

-- A.C. Fuller, author of The Alex Vane Media Thriller series

"An Interlude in Berlin is an effective thriller."

-- William Christie, author of A Single Spy

"With this meticulously crafted Cold War spy thriller, historical auteur Jefferson Flanders scores big. Highly recommended for fans of John le Carré."
