Synopsis: When a security guard at the UN shoots a harmless old man mistakenly suspected of being a suicide bomber, Tom Byrne—a long way from his days as an idealistic young lawyer—is called in to placate the man’s family, including his daughter, Rebecca. But Tom soon discovers that the victim was not quite as innocent as he seemed and his is the latest in a chain of hundreds of unexplained deaths linked to a powerful brotherhood. Pursued by ruthless killers, Tom must unlock a secret buried for more than sixty years—the last great secret of World War II. Based on the true story of a group of Holocaust survivors that sought revenge for Nazi crimes, The Final Reckoning is an atmospheric, emotionally engaging and twisting thriller that moves at warp speed from first page to last.
