I’m trying to learn German and also really interested in Germany . Planning to go to Berlin this year . This book is set after World War One in 1929 in Weimar Republic . Berlin is full of Russians and communists . Underground scene is booming . Very interesting and exciting book .

I haven't read that but if you are interested in Germany, and in particular Berlin, I would recommend:

Stasiland - an incredible memoir of life in East Berlin under the communists

books by Philip Kerr about a private detective in 1930's Berlin. You get three novels in a single book called Berlin Noir.

Tor - the history of German football. 

Das Reboot - the story of how Germany reinvented itself again as a football world power.  Think Project Brave only not just a pile of pish. You can get this book for a few quid in Fopp just now.
