Description
When 80-year-old Ari Meyer is asked by the History Channel to tell the story of his wartime exploits with the "Ritchie Boys" he instead begins to tell the tale of Viktor, a soldier and friend, a young Jewish man killed in Germany during WWII. What follows is the story of two boys, who, having lost their mother and grandmother, are separated by their uncaring father in 1923 Munich, Germany; an unfortunate chain of events is brought about. Four-year-old Viktor is brought to America to live with an aunt and uncle in the affluence of Hollywood, California. Hans, the eldest, at eight, is sent to a Catholic orphanage in Augsburg, Germany and a life of austerity until he is adopted by an Austrian family five years later. Though Hans tries to keep in contact with Viktor, the miles, years, and an uncle who wants Viktor to forget his past prove too much for them. The story is complicated by politics, war, and murder; their love and loyalty tested after they finally reunite on opposite sides.
