Blurb: 
Paul has spent his life running - from New York, the city of his birth; from the beautiful love of his life; from contact with his own brother and sister; but mostly from his mother, a bitter Holocaust survivor of almost inexplicable coldness. Upon her death, the children face shocking questions. What caused this apparently healthy women to die? Why did she divide the inheritance so that Paul, the least favorite son, was singled out to receive the most, the dreaded 'German money,' a bequest of over a million dollars accrued from German reparations to survivors...a gift as cynical as it is generous?
