Children of Wrath
Willi Kraus, last seen in Paul Grossman’s The Sleepwalkers, returns in this prequel story about how he became the most famous Jewish detective in Germany in the days of the Weimar Republic.
In Children of Wrath, Willi tackles the case of the Kinderfresser, the Child-Eater of Berlin. The story starts in October, 1929, the last days of Weimar prosperity. On the same day the stock market crashes in New York, Willi is called to investigate a gruesome discovery: a bag filled with children’s bones, boiled and bound into intricate designs. As a former soldier, Willi is no stranger to horror, but this is different. And when other bags start appearing, he knows he’s up against something darker than anything he’s ever encountered.

This book is even better than his first and that one was good! One of the best books I've read in years. I didn't want it to end.
