Cover of Vaterland.

One of the few books that improve by translating them to German. Alternate history where Hitler won WW2 and everything is German. A mystery set in that scenario in the 60s – well-researched, well-paced. It’s not a cheap dystopia, it’s real and gritty and oppressive without going over the top.
