Philip Kerr published two short works under his own name. One Small Step appeared in 2008, and The Pocket Handkerchief followed in 2016. These shorter pieces sit alongside his much longer series novels and standalones, showing his willingness to work at different lengths.

While Kerr’s reputation rests primarily on the Bernie Gunther novels, his shorter fiction offered him room to experiment with different formats and tones outside the constraints of a full-length novel.
