description: A mass execution outside the Sachau concentration camp...A sole survivor, whose tattooed serial number has been surgically romoved and whose memory is gone...So begins a young man's search for his identity - A quest that carries him through the ruins of postwar Germany, then back in time to a love affair in Berlin and Greece. Who is he? What is his connection to a mysterious painting that has U.S. intelligence officials baffled? The hunt for answers will take him halfway around the world. Accompanied by a sad and beautiful woman tortured by the fact of her own survival of the camps, he tracks his enemies to a forgotten, decaying place at the heart of the Amazon. Set against the historical reality of SS medical atrocities, stolen art, and the Odessa apparatus organized for Nazi war criminals' escape, Maynard Allington's latest thriller sweeps the reader into an obscure, deadly world where shadows can hide more than the truth.
