Summary

Brothers divided by WWII reunite on a mission of justice in the chaos of early Cold War Europe in this historical espionage thriller.  Occupied Munich, 1946: Irina, a Cossack refugee, confesses to murdering a GI, but American captain Harry Kaspar doesn’t buy it. As Harry scours the devastated city for the truth, it leads him to his long-lost German brother, Max, who returned to Hitler’s Germany before the war.   Max has a questionable past, and he needs Harry for the cause that could redeem him: rescuing Irina’s stranded clan of Cossacks. Disowned by the Allies, they are now being hunted by Soviet death squads—the cold-blooded upshot of a callous postwar policy.    As a harsh winter brews and the Cold War looms, Harry and Max embark on a desperate rescue mission along the German-Czech border. As a mysterious figure shadows them, everyone is suspect—even those who have pledged to help. But before the Kaspar brothers can save the innocent victims of peace, grave secrets threaten to damn them all.
