This historical fiction novel deals with the plight of the Jews in Europe at the close of World War II. I know a fair amount of history, but I have read little or nothing about what happened to the Jews once the concentration camps were closed, and thus found this book really informative (it seems well-researched and has chapter notes). Also, the story is quite compelling and often had me in tears. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.

Girl shows up dead before the deadline. Old flame is in on the investigation. Lots of red herrings. Bad guy turns out to be a cop with a background of sexual attacks.
