Book overview

Frank Wolf, a Holocaust survivor turned private detective, returns to solve a chilling mystery in 1970s New York.

When Batya Flaum, the wife of a prominent Brooklyn rabbi, is brutally murdered, no one is prepared for the shocking revelations that follow. Teaming up with his grandson Joel and Joel's wife Aliya, Frank uncovers a web of secrets, deceit, and betrayal within the tight-knit Jewish community.

As they navigate family dynamics and unravel long-buried truths, the trio must determine who is truly complicit in the crime . . . and why.

Filled with suspense and psychological depth, this gripping novel challenges readers to confront moral dilemmas and question how well we really know those we love.
