In the early 2000s, a very rich and powerful Chicago octogenarian is accused of being a Nazi butcher from WWII Poland…..accused by another old man who claims to have know him personally, seven decades earlier.Masterful job weaving together the present-day lives of all the characters, with the history of the terrible German scourge of Poland during the war. Because this story seemed so personal and first-hand, I felt for sure that the author must have been a Polish holocaust survivor…or at least someone who was there to witness events like those portrayed in the story. Turns out that the author is a Chicago lawyer, with no direct connection to WWII Poland.This is great historical fiction, well written/edited. Characters are fully developed, likable (or hate-abe) and totally believable. This is one of the best books I’ve ever read……I just couldn’t put it down. Looking for much more from this author. Most highly recommended for history nuts (like me).

I rarely read books or watch films that feature Nazi Germany; it's too painful for me. I was born in 1938, and some of my father's people in Poland were sent to concentration camps, in which they dealt with very unpleasant treatment. Fortunately, they survived, and my dad made himself responsible for getting them into the USA, where they lived as proud American citizens until they passed away several years ago.While this book deals with the way Polish Jews were treated by the Nazis, it was mainly a legal thriller. The story was very well developed--with so many really interesting characters.I'd recommend it to anyone of any age.

This first book by this author was a great debut novel - one of the best books I've read this year. Caution: based on this book I bought the author's second novel and didn't enjoy it all. Maybe he expended all his writing skills in this one - anyway, I digress. The story begins with an elderly Jew going to the opera with a replica gun and confronting one of the city's leading wealthy businessmen/benefactors. He accuses him of being a Nazi war criminal, and so the story begins. Suffice it to say that he faces an uphill battle proving his accusation, but he is fortunate to catch the interest of a sort of down on her luck female attorney, and subsequently her erstwhile private investigator friend/boyfriend, and the story takes us on a page-turning ride through his revelations of Nazi Germany, his insistence that he is certain of his accusation, and the building up of the case and evidence that ultimately brings the book to a compelling climax. The good characters are likable, the bad characters are just the right degree of unlikable and none of them are one-dimensional or perfect. The book rings true. You will get hooked on the story, you might shed a tear or two, but ultimately you will feel fortunate for having known these characters. I strongly recommend this book.

There is a lot about the structure of the book that makes a gripping story less gripping. The lawyer character from whose POV we find out about the protagonist's backstory seems kind of flat and distracting when compared to the the characters in the bits of the book set in Poland, and weirdly the antagonist is also poorly fleshed out. We don't get much of a sense of how he went (psychologically speaking) from an ally to his Jewish neighbors to a Jew-hunting NAZI beyond the bare facts of what he did and when he did it. Similarly, Rosenzweig as we meet him in old age remains rather opaque to the reader; I would have liked for the author to show us more of how Rosenzweig kept his mask on and how he justified it to himself. It seemed to me there was too much 'tell' and not enough 'show' to that aspect of the book.If you manage to get past those problems (I ended up skimming anything that didn't involve Ben Solomon), there's a great read here. This book is clearly the product of a lot of research, and when you're in the past with Ben Solomon, you're VERY much present and riveted. I'm glad I read it and would recommend it to a friend. It's a solid four stars worth of read, but for that fifth star, I'd like to see the author focus less on his POV character and more on the two men in the title - former brothers turned against each other by war and a toxic, antisemitic culture.

In 2004, Ben Solomon, a Holocaust survivor, sees a wealthy and powerful businessman on TV and recognizes him as a Nazi soldier that committed atrosities against him and his family during the Holocaust. Ben wants justice to be served for his loved ones, so he hires a lawyer named Catherine but she does not want the case. Ben tells Catherine his account of WWII, which causes Catherine to succumb and represent him up against the richest man in Chicago. Only Catherine and her best friend Liam believe Ben's narrative account that makes the richest man in Chicago out as a Nazi monster. Catherine is attacked professionally for taking on Ben's case, and struggles with accepting the moral reward rather than the money.This novel does not go into explicit and graphic elements that encompassed the Holocaust.It uses Ben's narrative as the historical fiction aspect. It is a legal thriller combined with historical fiction.

There were aspects of this book that I liked a great deal, and others, not as much. The story itself kept my interest--reading about the conditions for Jews in Poland in the late '30s and 40s was horrifying, but accurate. What I didn't buy so much was the convention of how the story was told: if the attorney working for a large firm in Chicago was as busy as she professed to be, I just don't think she would have embarked on giving Ben so much time to tell his story. I also found it a stretch that a man in his 80s would have such complete recall, down to the conversations held, 60 to 70 years prior. It was well written overall, and I'd recommend but with these reservations.
