Praise for Caught in the Mousetrap:
"Fans of Len Deighton or Philip Kerr will enjoy this excellent Cold War thriller set in 1961. A city about to be sliced in half by the notorious Berlin Wall is expertly described by author Grant, whose love and knowledge of history shine through. One of the best self-published novels I’ve read."

Author STASI WOLF & STASI CHILD. 2x Longlisted Theakstons Crime Novel of the Year. Winner CWA History Dagger.
BERLIN August 1961: Everybody believes something will happen, but nobody knows exactly what or when. People are fleeing East Berlin while they can. The East German authorities are ratcheting up the pressure on the "Bordercrossers". Klaus Schultz is handed documents outlining Ulbricht's plans to build a wall, but are they genuine? Impetuous journalist Jack Kaymer discovers an East Berlin warehouse brimming with concrete posts and barbed wire. The headstrong Eva Schultz continues to live in the eastern sector whilst working in the west.
The Stasi coerce Jack to stop him publishing his story and take his girlfriend, Eva as the bargaining chip.
In spite of their original enmity, Jack and Klaus work together to have Eva released before the border is closed, but Klaus' past comes back to haunt them.
Can Jack and Klaus outwit the Stasi?
Will they get Eva out alive?
Meanwhile, Colonel Hans Erdmann of the People's Army is losing faith in the regime. His bosses want to put him out to grass.
When they find Hans harder to dislodge than they anticipated, they resort to dirty tactics. Hans sees the end coming and decides it's time to get out.
Their destinies are all firmly in the hands of the wily, KGB spymaster, Burzin and his arch rival General Dobrovsky.
Set against the backdrop of the Berlin Crisis, "Caught in the Mousetrap" is a fast-paced thriller for the lovers of Cold War Berlin and those who enjoy a story in the Len Deighton mould, with a touch of Bernie Gunther thrown in.
