Reviews
Praise for the Louis Morgon Thrillers: "A page-turner...like a good Alan Furst or Graham Greene novel." -- The Washingtonian "A wonderful read...a fresh perspective on the international thriller." --Olen Steinhauer "Generates the building tension associated with such classic international thrillers as Day of the Jackal . [Will] appeal to both political-thriller fans and anyone who enjoys international fiction." -- Booklist "A rare phenomenon, a beautiful crime novel. When I realized what it was, I read it more slowly to make it last." --Thomas Perry, New York Times bestselling author of Nightlife "Wonderfully vivid...Steiner keeps us guessing. A slam dunk!" --The Washington Times "Pacy, engrossing...a touching examination of the impact of terrorism and counterterrorism on the lives of those involved." --Robert Goddard, "A subtle and complex thriller/whodunit, written with wit, intelligence and luminous precision." -- Kirkus Reviews, Praise for The Resistance "A subtle and complex thriller/whodunit, written with wit, intelligence and luminous precision." -- Kirkus Reviews

Synopsis
"Literate crime thrillers don't get much better than this." --Publishers Weekly (starred) on L'Assassin Peter Steiner has thoroughly impressed sophisticated thriller mavens everywhere with his critically acclaimed novels featuring ex-CIA operative Louis Morgon. Now, in what is indubitably Steiner's finest book to date, Louis attempts to solve a mystery with roots going back as far as World War II. When Louis purchases a rundown house in Saint-Leon-sur-Dême, he quickly goes to work fixing it up. However, during the renovations, he discovers evidence of a long forgotten crime hidden beneath the floorboards. Unable to leave a good mystery unsolved, he enlists the help of his friend Renard, a French cop, and sets out to discover exactly what happened in this small French village during the Nazi occupation. As Louis and Renard search for the answer to a decades-old question, they encounter an unforgettable cast of characters, including Simon, a Jew from Berlin who leads a French resistance cell, a Nazi colonel who is not at all what he seems, and Marie Piano, whose bravery is unmatched. Soon, Louis is pulled into the secrets and lies of the past as he begins to call into question the very nature of guilt and innocence in times of war. Compelling, arresting, and complex, The Resistance is a thriller that will appeal to fans of John le Carre and Graham Greene., "Literate crime thrillers don't get much better than this." --Publishers Weekly (starred) on L'Assassin Peter Steiner has thoroughly impressed sophisticated thriller mavens everywhere with his critically acclaimed novels featuring ex-CIA operative Louis Morgon.
