Munich, 1950, occupied West Germany; Horst Vogle is quietly working
to reassemble the city museum's art collection. Aspiring pianist,
Greta Furster, introduces him to a group of ambitious war veterans
seeking to restore German pride and help refugees fleeing the
Communist East. Vogle learns that they are using Nazi gold to fund
Egyptian weapons intended to be used against Israel. Vogle has his
own secret. He is Jan Goldberg, one-time Jewish Partisan and
soldier in the Israeli War of Independence, now an Israeli
assassin, targeting Nazi fugitives. To Goldberg, recovering gold
taken from Jewish victims is a way of gaining retribution for the
Holocaust and as his bond to Greta intensifies, his mission and
identity are tested. This fact-based thriller is a must-read for
fans of John Le Carre and Alan Furst. It's an intriguing take on
the Nazi legacy in Post War Germany and an exploration of the
polarities of revenge and reconciliation, the limitations of
ideology, and the power of love.
