Fatherland by Robert Harris


After a rough couple weeks still feeling unfulfilled from my empty caloric romance read, I picked up Robert Harris' Fatherland. Three months on the New York Times Bestseller List! It was the perfect summer read. A great detective story with a hard-boiled protagonist--outsider, smart, honorable--and an engaging background story, what-might-have-been if Germany had won WWII and controlled the majority of Europe and Joseph Kennedy was US president. Good job.
