?Budapest, 1940. The world outside may be embroiled in war and catastrophe, but for Professor Péter Kadar life could hardly be better. His career is flourishing and he has a beautiful young wife, Anna. His perfect life, however, disintegrates on the very day that he is named to head a well-known local clinic. Even while he was being celebrated by his colleagues, Kadar's own adopted son Zoltan, also a doctor, was preparing to run off with Anna. Too busy with the success of his career, he never harboured any suspicions. So now Kadar is at a crossroads. He makes a drastic bargain. The lives of all three will be changed forever.?
