Product Description
Dust from the demolished Berlin Wall has barely settled, the East German police state is teetering on the edge of collapse, and Stasi General HOLGER FRANTZ will stop at nothing to save it. Caught in his intrigue are two unlikely heroes: American lawyer ROLF KELLER, recently divorced, fresh off the bottle, and mysteriously dispatched by his senior partner to coordinate document drops by a defecting Stasi agent, and aspiring opera diva SYLVIA MAZZONI, Rolf's former lover who has been coerced into acting as courier.
When the document drop goes fatally awry, the reluctant recruits flee into the East German countryside. They manage to unearth the defector's secret document cache and uncover a covert assassination plot. Stalked by a Stasi killer, they struggle to decipher the plan, but when he marches them into the Bavarian woods, all seems lost—their effort to foil the assassins, German unification, and their very lives.

Critiques and Reader Comments:
“You won’t be able to put the book down. A breathtaking roller coaster ride.”
“Tension, drama and setting. This has it all.”
“Cheers for a smashing read.”
“An extremely well written piece that intrigued me from the beginning to its end. To me it had a touch of Robert Ludlum and John Grisham.”
“Excellent story. I was captivated within the first few paragraphs.”
“The Stasi File is one of the most compelling spy novels I have read. This is an intelligent, complex, believable tightly written story with well developed characters. Half way through my reading a power outage was trying to interrupt my enjoyment, but I resorted to a camper’s headlamp go keep going. Be prepared for an all-nighter.”
“Bernhardt grabbed my attention from the start and kept me hooked right until the end.”
“Everyone in our book club thought this was an outstanding espionage novel. It has great character development. You are kept guessing at all times. A great read!”
“This novel is truly riveting. Very well written, with plot twists and resolutions the reader doesn’t expect; keeps you guessing as to the outcome to the very last chapter.”
