- Summary:
- "In 1945, when Baruch Posner learns of his mother's impending trial for assisting the Gestapo as a Greiferin, a "Catcher" who identifies Jews hiding as non-Jews, referred to as "U-Boats," he returns to Berlin. Sitting unnoticed in the rear of the courtroom, he discovers his mother's infamy and reflects on his escape from Germany to Cuba and then to the U.S. Leaving the courtroom, he swears never to return to Germany, his mother be damned. But a year later, he receives a letter from Gemma Rosselli, a former friend, co-worker, and ally in the underground, as well as a romantic interest. She writes that she has found in the Nazi archives information bearing on his parents. To see the douments, he must appear in person"--From book jacket flap.
