Two desperate fugitives face a nightmarish pursuit across the Third Reich, where violence and deception are tools of the trade, and torture and death wait at every turn... 1930's Berlin - unrestrained, decadent, torn by political and social strife - and dashing Ryan Lemmon intends to make the most of every moment. The young American reporter loses himself in the dark underbelly of the capital, only to have a violent death bring him face-to-face with the growing menace. As Hitler's stranglehold grips the nation, Ryan becomes involved with a spirited German blonde, but her relationship with a sadistic Nazi powerhouse puts them both at risk of an agonizing end. Having already lost one friend to Nazi brutality, Ryan and his former flame must now escape the all-powerful Gestapo. And she agrees to steal intelligence which can save the lives of millions, but only if it reaches the right hands in Washington.
Inspired by the contemporary journals of the author's late father, Corridor of Darkness evokes the cruel heart of pre-World War II Germany, where any missed beat could be the protagonists' last.

What did you like best about Corridor of Darkness? What did you like least?
The plot is very interesting: a young American working in Nazi Germany for the US State Department and involving himself in rescuing an ex-lover married to a brutal Gestapo chief. There is much interesting detail about everyday life in Germany, the streets, the food, the people.What I didn't like was the superficial style full of "airport book" metaphors and sensationalist turns of phrase. Disappointing
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
Kind of an anti-climax, but OKWhich character – as performed by Tim Campbell – was your favorite?
Campbell does a great job with different accents and voices. Very enjoyable.Any additional comments?

What would have made Corridor of Darkness better?
I liked the narrator so much in this book, that I actually bought the second in the series (there are three total). Tim Campbell's pronunciations, enunciation and character voices were all remarkable. As far as the story goes, it was just so-so. While entertaining, it pales in comparison to the WWII stories written by Philip Kerr. I will not buy book three or any other by Mr. O'Bryon. There are much better writers out there.Great narration, OK story

A final note: As I finished the book last night, in listening to the afterword, I was pleasantly surprised by the author's comment on the events that caused him to write the novel.
I look forward to listening to the next two books in the series.
Outstanding suspense novel set in Nazi Germany
