from the back cover:
"What should you do if the world has turned against you? When Father Anselm is asked this question by an old man in the nave at Larkwood Priory, his response is simple: claim sanctuary. Then the old man demands just that: his name is Eduard Schwermann and he is wanted by the police as a suspected war criminal.
With her life running out, Agnes Aubret feels it is time to unburden her secrets to her granddaughter Lucy. 50 years earlier, Agnes had been living in Occupied Paris, a member of a small group smuggling Jewish children to safety - until they were exposed by a young SS Officer: Eduard Schwermann...
As Anselm uncovers Schwermann's past and as Lucy's search into her grandmother's history continues, their investigations dovetail to reveal a remarkable story."

There are different threads to this - a war story, a legal thriller and a religious element (which unfortunately gives it the feel of Dan Brown, although this is far superior) and they are woven so fantastically that I was completely hooked throughout the entire book.

It took me a while to settle into this book whilst I worked out who the characters were and where they slotted into each others lives but once I'd identified the threads I was hooked and I found the ending very satisfying.

Picked up from KGC on Sunday. I'm sure I've seen this on the wishlist of someone attending convention so it will go there with me for the RABCK table.

I was so surprised to find this book on the RABCK table at the convention. Thank you, beckydore, for thinking of me!
It took me a while, and numerous false starts, to get through this book. It was worth the read in the end though.
