A sweeping portrait of one Berlin family, spanning generations and two world wars

Peter and Paul, the two sons of German businessman Harald Winter, are bonded together by a childhood trauma. But as they grow up the brothers also grow apart. When the shadow of the Third Reich falls they become divided by war and their differing ideals - only to meet again years later at the Nuremberg trials. An epic prelude to the Bernard Samson Game, Set and Match trilogy, Winter is a rich, tragic portrait of the fortunes of a family, and a nation, over half a century.

Praise for Winter

Deighton's research and plotting are as surefooted as ever, while the pace and tension leave one almost breathless. A frightening yet compelling novel.

Sunday Telegraph

A monumental work ... brilliantly executed.

Daily Telegraph

Deighton's most ambitious and subtle book to date, an epic fiction.

Evening Standard

Deighton is a fearless observer of the deceptive human world.
