East Berlin, 1986. The Wall casts its long shadow over a city of surveillance, secrets, and fear. When young women begin to vanish, their bodies found ritually mutilated, whispers spread of a man in a blue Trabant prowling the streets. Assigned to the case is Lisanne Senß, a sharp but compromised Stasi officer with her own dark past. Paired with Tobias Engel, a weary detective who has lost faith in the Party, and aided by Anja Richter, a reckless young journalist hungry for the truth, Lisanne soon discovers the killings aren't just the work of a lone madman. They may be the product of the State itself-hidden behind files, erased names, and the endless machinery of propaganda. In a world where files vanish, witnesses are silenced, and even truth itself can be outlawed, Lisanne must decide whether to obey the State-or betray it. Because in Berlin, 1986, betrayal is survival. Perfect for readers of Gorky Park and fans of Cold War thrillers, The Blue Trabant blends psychological horror with historical noir to create a haunting portrait of obsession, power, and the ghosts that walls can never contain.
James Dargan is the author of over thirty books spanning crime, noir, satire, historical fiction, and literary fiction. Known for razor-sharp dialogue, vivid characters, and a knack for weaving grit with dark humour, his work ranges from the hard-boiled streets of the Napoleon Clancy thrillers to the sprawling crime sagas of The Bayside City series, the evocative Latin American novels, and a host of standalone titles. Dargan's novels often drop readers into morally complex worlds where loyalty is fragile, justice is elusive, and survival depends on quick thinking and a little luck. Influenced by the likes of Elmore Leonard, Dennis Lehane, and Cormac McCarthy, his prose balances propulsive storytelling with atmospheric detail, creating stories that are as cinematic as they are immersive. Whether exploring mob wars and political corruption, the quiet desperation of outsiders, or the chaos of history's turning points, Dargan writes with an unflinching eye and a storyteller's instinct for pacing, character, and place. His work is as much about the people caught in the crossfire as it is about the bullets themselves. James Dargan: Writer, Raconteur, Blogger, and Journalist.
