WINNER OF THE 2012 USA BEST BOOK AWARD FOR HISTORICAL FICTION IN EBOOK FORMAT
London -1965. Dr. Michael Turner knows only that he was saved from certain death at the age of four and lived in Paris during the Nazi occupation. Until the lawyer's letter, the misty photographs, the revelation that his aunt had survived the Camps, that she was injected with toxins by SS doctors. He is drawn inexorably into his past. To the stench of potato-sacks, the smell of cinnamon and almonds, the barking of dogs, the screech of trains. Can he bring about the destruction of the doctors who tortured his last remaining relative? Is he capable of doing this without compromising his Hippocratic Oath?
This book takes the reader breathlessly from extraordinary revelation to nail-biting resolution. Disturbing and intriguing. Packed with plotv twists and incident. A rite of passage novel which is also a revenge thriller. A Holocaust novel which is also a page-turner. I challenge you to put it down.
