Title: The promise
Description: "Ben Webster appears to have it all - health, wealth, a beautiful wife and a thriving business. In reality, his wife is unfaithful and predators are circling the profitable firm that he heads. And then his beloved grandmother summons him. She tells him that the family business has been built on the theft of the birthright of three children orphaned during the war. 'Find them, ' she says. 'I can't die with what your grandfather did on my conscience.' But where does he begin, and how? As Ben delves into the past he finds relief from his own troubles and, for a moment, the thrill of an affair is a welcome distraction. Sooner or later, however, he must not only deal with the present, he must redress the wrongs of the past."--Publisher's description.
