The Last of Our Kind

the long version

"Werner Zilch, an up and coming entrepreneur in early 1970's New York, was adopted as an infant by a loving middle class couple in New Jersey, and knows nothing of his biological family-- nor is he particularly interested. but when he meets the family of Rebecca, the one woman he has truly fallen in love with, a mysterious link means he finds himself at risk of losing her unless he can uncover the truth of his past. Taking the reader to 1945 Dresden, the Bavarian Alps and uncovering Operation Paperclip, whereby brilliant Nazi scientists were taken to America after the war, The last of our kind, is a riveting novel of family and love."--Page 2 of cover.
