About
Anders and his mother, Danish immigrants from post-war Europe, are transported to America by her German officer lover.
Anders grows up unaware of his mother's past until her despondency finally drives her to suicide when he is eighteen. Forty years later, a wealthy resident of the same small coastal California town, he lives a secure life until a chance meeting with an old German rancher begins the revelation of Anders' past and the unravelling of his prosperity. Small town corruption, the noirish coastal setting, powerful female characters, and a mysterious benefactor lead him to a final, violent act.
