'Poses a profound and disturbing moral question' New York Times Book Review

For fifty years, Max Menuchen has kept the secret of his past. The sole survivor when his family was gunned down by Nazi Marcelus Prandus, he has made a new life in America, and even his close friend, defence lawyer Abe Ringel, knows little of Max's history. When a chance encounter brings Max face to face with Marcelus Prandus, the desire for revenge becomes an obsession. Max wants Marcelus to witness the death of everyone he loves. But can it ever be just to kill the innocent to avenge the guilty? Max's solution is both monstrous and inspired, and the trial that follows will captivate and horrify the world.
