The David Connection Basil Taher

Sixty years after her liberation from a Nazi death camp, Ingrid is still a prisoner of war. Like other Holocaust survivors, she is haunted by the atrocities inflicted on her, but she suffers even more by misplaced guilt and shame that has a profound effect on her relationships. A boy she once knew in Germany is now a successful businessman living under an assumed name in South America. While Oscar's life is motivated by the prejudice and hatred within the neo-Nazi movement, Ingrid's loving family in Detroit is challenged by religious identity as well as the cancer that seems an unfair blow to a woman who has already endured so much. The probability of their adult children ever meeting each other was unlikely, but with fatal consequences. The David Connection is an epic historical drama that explores filial loyalty in the shadow of unfathomable loathing, as well as the tests of spirituality and love.
