A stunning combination of philosophical insight, taut plot, and poetic language. It reminds me of Paul Auster at his best.
Loved the book.

a well written historical and psychological thriller

Bruce Ducker taps into a modern sleuth story with important historical ramifications (the question of Jewish assets "lost" during WWII) to write a compelling work of fiction. The book is more than just a detective story about hidden asssets. Ducker develops an interesting and complex protagonist whose amateur detective work leads him to learn more about his own family history. Although the plot itself is somewhat obvious, the characters are first rate, as are the scenes from Zurich and Budapest.
A gripping combonation
