The story takes place initially in Viennia just before the start of WWII with a Jewish surgeon deciding to escape Austria but finding the doors of many other countries closed to Jews.  However, he is able to flee to Singapore.  Then of course, he has to deal with the Japanese invasion.  Look forward to getting right into this novel.
