In the dying days of WW II on the American occupied side of Germany's Elbe River, US Army Medical Corps Colonel Samuel Singer comes upon the shot-up wreck of a smouldering SS Staff car, with a badly injured driver, nearby a dead German Army officer carrying the ID of a Nazi war criminal, and a young blonde woman, also dead in the back seat.

July 1988

Art curator Daniel Singer, the adopted son of Colonel Singer receives a mysterious package-a large brown envelope, sealed with security tape-from West Berlin. He can't help but think that there's something important within the envelope. But what?

Daniel's quest to learn about the package's contents leads him on a surprising voyage of discovery about his own roots, including an encounter with the Mossad, Israel's top secret spy agency.
