When John Greenwood, a Catholic priest from Chicago -- and a liberal "child of the 60s" -- suddenly learns that he's a Jewish Holocaust orphan, he asks desperately, what does that make him? Is he Catholic or Jewish? American or German? Father Greenwood plunges into a adventuresome search for identity and for truth. Who is right, his pacifist mentors, or his newfound family, some of whom died fighting Hitler? His mind spins as his struggle to find answers, for himself, his foster parents, his real family, and his long lost love, plays out against a background of real events in America and the world today. Everything he ever knew and believed is on trial. Tension builds to a surprise ending in Israel. 245 pages.
