Hi! I’m brainstorming a Christmas book for my brother. He is a law student and doesn’t have a lot of down time so I’m looking for something fun and engaging but also decent prose, think more Robert Harris than Dan Brown or James Patterson. He doesn’t read a ton of fiction as an adult but as a kid he loved stuff like Alex Rider, Ranger’s Apprentice, Young Samurai, etc. Can you guys think of a book—preferably standalone—that feels like an adult version of those books, but isn’t just totally schlocky/pulpy? He doesn’t like fantasy so no magic elements please.

“Three Men on the Bummel” by Jerome K. Jerome – you’ll find here an accurate and detailed description of Germans and Germany, but at the same time it is a lot of fun.
