It is 1946, and the full horrors of the previous six years are
slowly coming to light. But in Jerusalem, Elias Lind can't accept
that his brother Raphael really did die in a concentration camp. He
has evidence that the scientist is still alive but, unable to
search for him himself, he persuades a young member of the Jewish
resistance to help. Lilya's search for Raphael takes her from the
dusty streets of Jerusalem to the heart of political London, from
US-controlled Munich to an overcrowded and underfunded displaced
persons camp, before leading her to the devastated shell of Berlin
itself. But before long Lilya realises that she isn't the only one
searching for the missing scientist; a mysterious pursuer is hot on
her heels, and it soon becomes clear that Raphael's life isn't the
only one in question . . . Displaced is a deeply intelligent
thriller about how the actions of a few can change the course of
history. It is about the making of a new world from the ashes of
the old, and decisions taken whose consequences are still with us
today.
