Consecrated Ground
About this ebook
When the ambitious American reporter Annie Pohlmann tracks down former police detective Fritz Stecher, she doesn’t want to talk about his most famous case. She wants to talk about his most famous failure, a failure tied to the most notorious events of the 1930s. Stecher talks, and reveals even more than Annie ever bargained for.
Sadly relevant today, Consecrated Ground explores the underlying evil of unchecked power and its effect on the entire world.
“…a short, powerful novel that proves the always impressive Rusch can successfully tackle any genre she sets her sights on.”

Editor’s Pick
“Rusch [writes] a fine historical thriller….It’s a great story, cleanly told.”
—The Oregonian
“… a fascinating concoction of historical speculation, moral compass calibration, and an account of tough police work. Much as with Caleb Carr and Thomas Harris, Kris Rusch sails under her own flag.”
—Locus
“Deeply evocative, it breathes menace from every page and memorably conveys what Rusch calls the ‘casual evil’ that suffused Germany as the Nazis came to power.”
—The Daily Mail
