Restitution - Hardcover
Betony Falk, who was orphaned as a child, finds out that her father had been a German Jewish refugee baby. Her own sense of identity undermined, she sets out on a quest for the truth which takes her to Germany and into the past - and the more she finds out, the less she knows who she is now.
