The Days of Killing

Berlin, November 1945. Yuri Nosenko, a Russian army officer awaiting execution for a crime he didn’t commit, is released from an NKVD prison and sent to Berlin to find and kill the former head of the Gestapo, Heinrich Müller.

Müller has top secret Soviet documents which prove that Joseph Stalin ordered the Katyn Forest Massacre of 15,000 Polish officers. He aims to give the documents to the Americans in return for immunity from indictment as a war criminal and sanctuary in the West. The information contained in the documents could shatter the flimsy postwar peace between the USA and the USSR. It could also affect the outcome of the Nuremburg War Crimes Trials.

Trapped between American and Russian occupiers, pawn of the NKVD, Nosenko stumbles through the ruins of Berlin searching for Müller. He’s haunted by the terrors of the Eastern Front and consumed by memories of his vanished wife and children whom he has vowed to find.

The hunt for Müller snares Nosenko in the murders of a young German woman and a U.S. Army general. A war survivor turned prostitute sacrifices everything to help Nosenko escape the NKVD. A female Red Army officer risks her life to help Nosenko find his family.

Dogged by Russian assassins Nosenko’s dual quest becomes a perilous and deadly trek across Europe that propels him to a final reckoning with the days of killing.
