Alone in Berlin by Hans Fallada

Also known as Everyone Dies Alone.  Life in wartime Berlin among the ordinary, the minor crooks, the Gestapo and an old couple who resist by leaving messages on postcards throughout the city.  Even tone makes sudden violence the more shocking.  (I read this in French.)

98. Cette Chanson Que Je N'Oublierai Jamais, Mary Higgins Clark

Epouse se marie avec possible meurtrier et le sauve. Je n'aime pas Clark, vraiement, mais j'aime le façon que les français renomment les romans.
