My thoughts on this are pretty similar to the previous book, Prisoner of Night and Fog. It doesn't feel like it has the depth to tackle some of the issues it tries to (antisemitism, politics, mental illness), but it's an enjoyable ride. I do think that the first book was stronger and I was much more invested in that story. The mystery and plot of this felt a little shoehorned in. But I still gave it three stars and I think if you like the first one, you'll enjoy this as well. Very glad I read both of these.
