A remarkable achievement The Orpheus Clock is an absolute must read. -- Annie Jacobsen, New York Times bestselling author
Even readers well familiar with World War II and Holocaust history will find this a fresh and lively read. -- Christian Science Monitor
The Orpheus Clock is the extraordinary story of a prominent German family and their priceless art collection, the Nazis who robbed them, and a son's decades-long and continuing quest for justice. Following the death of his father, Simon Goodman and his family discovered in the 1990's a trove of letters, documents and other correspondence. Goodman's quest has led to the recovery of hundreds of his family's possessions and the restoration of their legacy, and has helped to change International policy regarding art restitution. This arresting account of Goodman's struggle combines the poignant and tragic story of a family with an intricate detective story.
