A woman must untangle a dark enigma that dates back to World War II in
order to find her kidnapped son in this riveting international
thriller from Peter Abrahams, aka Spencer Quinn, author of the Chet
and Bernie Mysteries Rachel Monette arrives home to a scene of
unspeakable violence: Her French-born husband, Dan, is dead—the
victim of a savage stabbing—and her five-year-old son is missing. A
neighbor claims she saw a rabbi taking Adam away. But there are no
synagogues in Williamstown. The only clue is a letter Rachel finds
in Dan’s safety deposit box. Written in 1942, it’s about the
reassignment of three German soldiers to a place called Camp Siegfried
in the supposedly unoccupied western part of North Africa. Convinced
that the murder and abduction are related to a book Dan recently
completed about German-occupied countries during World War II, Rachel
travels to North Africa and then on to Israel, where a mass murderer
hiding in plain sight is determined to keep the horrors of the past
buried forever.
