'''''The Berlin Memorandum''''' is a [[Spy fiction|spy novel]] written by [[Elleston Trevor]] (under the [[pseudonym]] Adam Hall). It is the debut novel of the character [[Quiller]].
It was adapted as the film "[[The Quiller Memorandum]]".
== Plot summary ==
Quiller is introduced as a serving [[United Kingdom|British]] [[intelligence officer]] in a [[black operations|black organization]] called "the Bureau" and as a veteran of [[Espionage|clandestine service]] during [[World War II]]. Quiller never states which service he worked in during wartime, and we are not told the year in which that organization was founded. It is, however, mentioned the original explicit purpose of the Bureau was to prevent any possible resurgence of German militarism, any situation that might lead to something resembling a [[Fourth Reich]].
Numerous governments offered him medals for his actions in the war, but he refused them all. During and after his wartime service, Quiller became a specialist in understanding [[Die Spinne|Nazi clandestine organizations]] and their activities, particularly the so-called "[[Ratlines (history)|ratlines]]" used by [[Nazi]]s to escape from justice. Most of the book takes place in 1965, by which time Quiller has been seconded by the Bureau to secretly provide large amounts of useful intelligence information to [[West Germany]]'s main [[war crime]]s investigation agency, the [[Central Office of the State Justice Administration for the Investigation of National Socialist Crimes|Z Commission]]. Quiller is tired and wants to return home, but the Bureau persuades him to investigate the plans of a Nazi secret society. He agrees to do so in part because that secret society has just assassinated a friend and colleague whom he had deeply respected.
