Plot Summary:When twin brothers Jake and Henry Davies are found dead in their home, the police initially suspect robbery as the elderly gentlemen were known to keep large sums of cash in the house. The autopsy reveals murder however and Sam determines that skin grafts both men have on their arms may have been a crude form of plastic surgery meant to cover tattoos of concentration camp numbers. Thinnking they are now dealing with a hate crime, the police focus on Carl Martin, a known race-hater. What they have however is a case of someone seeking revenge for the atrocities committed long ago.
Sam's cases involve a series of revenge killings by a former Auschwitz prisoner; the mysterious deaths of teenage girls killed 15 years apart in Norway; a suspicious suicide and a beautiful Nun in a convent by the sea - very different stories, all employing Sam's expertise to the maximum.
