Berlin is a funeral pyre. As the Red Army’s artillery levels what remains of the Third Reich, physicist Elsa Meyer is running out of time. For years, she lived a double life as a lab assistant, harvesting the secrets of Germany’s atomic program for the Allies. Now, with Hitler’s bunker in chaos and her handler dead, she is the only one left who knows where the heavy water data is hidden. But Elsa isn't just fleeing the Soviets. SS Obersturmführer Kurt Hauser is purging every witness to the program, and Elsa is at the top of his list. To survive the gauntlet of ruined subways and sniper-filled streets, she must form an uneasy alliance with a guilt-ridden chemist and a rugged OSS operative. From the claustrophobic darkness of U-Bahn tunnels to the blood-soaked banks of the Elbe, Berlin Shadows is a high-octane race against total annihilation. Elsa carries the ledger that will define the post-war world, but in a city where every shadow hides a killer, the price of the future may be her own soul. Can she escape the collapsing heart of evil before the atomic dawn breaks over the wrong side?
