Description Girl From Berlin by Ronald Balson


In THE GIRL FROM BERLIN, Catherine Lockhart and Liam Taggart are enlisted to help an elderly woman facing eviction from her Tuscan villa by a powerful corporation which mysteriously produces a deed allegedly superior to hers.  Their only clue is a bound handwritten manuscript, entirely in German.  Hidden in its pages is a story long-forgotten…

Ada Baumgarten, a gifted violinist and daughter of Berlin Philharmonic’ concertmaster, comes of age in interwar Berlin, during the waning years of the Weimar Republic and the emergence of the Nazi reign.  She forms a deep attachment to her childhood friend Kurt, one that reappears at critical moments of her life.  As the tides of history turn, it is her extraordinary talent that carries her through Berlin’s unraveling society and to war-time Bologna, but also unwittingly makes her a Nazi target.

What becomes of Ada and her family?  What is the connection to the Tuscan eviction?  As they dig through layers of lies, corruption, and human evil, Catherine and Liam uncover an unfinished story of heart, redemption, and hope—the ending of which is unwritten.

Praise Girl From Berlin by Ronald Balson


“Ron Balson never disappoints with his rich, historical thrillers. Woven with research and detail, The Girl from Berlin is not to be missed.” ―Alyson Richman, international bestselling author of The Lost Wife

“Ron Balson’s masterful historical novel The Girl from Berlin illustrates how crimes buried in the past can reverberate across future generations. In this story, the powerhouse duo of attorney Catherine Lockhart and investigator Liam Taggart must travel to Italy to solve a mystery that somehow ties an elderly women in Tuscany who is about to lose her beloved vineyard, with a Jewish violin prodigy in 1930’s Berlin during Hitler’s rise. This is a fascinating, fast-paced dual-narrative that I could not put down. It is a heart-wrenching story of survival, hope and, ultimately, redemption that is sure to thrill current fans of Balson’s novels and create many new ones!” ―Jane Healey, author of The Saturday Evening Girls Club

“Balson’s many fans will thoroughly enjoy this new addition to the series, which continues the earlier novels’ dynamics plotting, compelling characters, and back-and-forth between-eras action. Newcomers will find the portrayals of the plight of the Jews in Central Europe leading up to and during World War II an unvarnished testament to the ugly truth.” ―Library Journal

“Murder, deception, and greed are involved, but this compelling story also offers the beauty of music and love, and the possibility of redemption.”- Jewish Book Council
