Thriller.
A gripping, inventive thriller about justice and retribution set in Paris thirty years after World War II Anna Martin is ready to put the past—and her unsuccessful marriage—behind her and start over with Nicholas Yurovsky.

An elite member of the Supreme Soviet who could be Russia's next president, Grigor Malenkov buried his past along with countless victims. At the invitation of the French president, he is coming to Paris, where the children of the dead wait for justice that has been a long time coming—with one innocent woman in the crossfire.
