The work under review defines the twisted Chern classes and twisted Chern character for bundle gerbe modules. This is obtained in terms of algebraic topology, using a splitting of bundle gerbe modules (by line bundles). They obtain these splitting under certain conditions. The concept of twisted Chern character was considered in the work of \textit{P. Bouwknegt, A. L. Carey, V. Mathai, M. K. Murray}, and \textit{D. Stevenson} [Commun. Math. Phys. 228, No. 1, 17--45 (2002; Zbl 1036.19005)]. Here it is proved that they coincide. Besides the introduction the paper consists of two other sections. Section 2 contains a very helpful exposition about the bundle gerbes. In section 3 we have the main results were the splitting principle for bundle gerbe modules is obtained.
