A Shadow Falls

"Rare and magnificent." — Ken Bruen

Five years ago, Jenny Aaron was the star member of an elite team charged with tracking Germany's most dangerous criminals — until a shot to the head left her irreversibly blind. Four weeks ago, Aaron tested the new skills that she's acquired in her world of darkness against Ludger Holm, the psychopath who fired that shot. Now she's learned that her worst enemy has left her a legacy of two billion dollars. Although she knows that it's a trap, Aaron realizes that if she is ever to find peace, she must play Holm's deadly game to the bitter end.

"Compassionate moments between characters add poignancy, and a subplot involving Aaron potentially regaining her sight intrigues . . . this is a thriller worth reading." — Publishers Weekly

"A first-rate thriller." — The Sunday Times

"Author Andreas Pflüger knows the world of crime and the elite units that fight it. And he knows how to make that world — and the world we all live in — vivid." — BookTrib

"Jenny Aaron is the blind Sherlock Holmes." — Stefan Ahnhem


This Dover edition, first published in 2019, is an unabridged republication of the English translation published in 2018 by Head of Zeus Ltd., London, which was originally published in German in 2017 by Suhrkamp Verlag, Berlin, under the title Niemals. The text has been modified for an American audience.
