From the New York Times bestselling author of Code Name Sapphire—a
captivating and suspenseful story of love and betrayal as two
dedicated attorneys defend the brother of a Holocaust hero against
allegations of war crimes. "At once a historical mystery, a legal
thriller, and a romance."—The Philadelphia Inquirer Charlotte Gold
is shocked when her ex-fiancé Brian appears on the doorstep of her
law office with a troubling case. Roger Dykmans, a wealthy financier
and the brother of a Holocaust hero, has been accused of World War
II-era war crimes, including the betrayal of his brother and the Jews
he tried to save. All Charlotte needs to do is travel to Munich and
help Brian’s estranged brother Jack prove Roger’s innocence.
Despite her misgivings, Charlotte agrees, but the case is soon
hindered by the client himself. Roger refuses to help with his own
defense, revealing only that proof of his innocence lies inside an
intricate timepiece last seen in Nazi Germany. As Jack and Charlotte
track the anniversary clock through the past century, they learn of
Roger’s love for his brother’s Jewish wife, Magda, and the tragic
decisions he had to make to save her—all the while fighting a
growing attraction of their own.
