Il criminale pallido (La trilogia berlinese di Bernie Gunther Vol. 2)

The setting feels so authentic, but I wonder what creative choices were made to keep the narrative engaging without sacrificing realism.

His actions often walk a fine line between right and wrong, which made me question my own judgments about justice in such a tense era.

It adds such a heavy layer of tension and moral ambiguity. I'm curious whether the author intended this setting to highlight broader themes about evil and complicity.
