Publisher's Synopsis
A manhunt beginning in the rubble of post-war Europe and coursing over the latter half of the Twentieth Century culminates in the brutal death of the hunter. Now, Frank Gibbon and Sonya Damsche must pick up the scent and course again. Their chase will lead them deep into the killing fields of the Second World War and into the desperate catalogue of the Nuremberg prosecution. It will lead them through the post-war American landscape of forgetfulness and prosperity, where a killer grows fat and complaisant on the stolen fortune of his victim. And, it will lead them into great and pressing danger as they encounter a generational malignancy that will kill again with undiminished savagery should they come to close.
