Koenig's new mystery highlights race and religious relations in the war-torn French capital. A sophisticated plot, quick pace, and engaging characters make this historical noir a standout., Joseph Koenig evokes the claustrophobic menace of the era in a voice as mournful as the best jazz, dark and colorful as a '40s film noir., Details, crisp and crackling dialogue, and vibrant characters bring occupied Paris and her citizens to life. The story flies along at a breathless pace as tension mounts, builds, and never lets up. An instant classic noir. Highly recommended., Grounding his subtle and complex thriller in rewardingly nuanced characters, Koenig creates an atmospheric world and delivers a series of satisfying surprises., Author Joseph Koenig has taken his time to set the mood in Really the Blues, drawing us into Eddie's day-to-day life as the ugly realities of Nazi occupation become clear. Mystery and history buffs alike will enjoy Koenig's attention to period detail and strong storytelling in this satisfying read.

One night the drummer for "Eddie et Ses Anges," an indifferent musician but an essential part of the band, disappears. When his body is found in the Seine the next day, Eddie becomes entangled in the murder investigation.

American jazz musician Eddie Piron has lived in the city of light since before the war began. But Paris under occupation is not what it once was, and things are looking a lot darker for a man like Eddie. The great jazz artists of the day, like Django Reinhardt, are lying low or being swept away under the racial policies of the Nazis. But the SS has a paradoxical taste for the "negermusik" and their favorite gathering place is La Caverne Negre, where Eddie leads the band.One night the drummer for "Eddie et Ses Anges", an indifferent musician but an essential part of the band, disappears.
