Summary:
Poxl West fled the Nazis' onslaught in Czechoslovakia. He escaped their clutches again in Holland. He pulled Londoners from the Blitz's rubble. He wooed intoxicating, unconventional beauties. He rained fire on Germany from his RAF bomber. He is something of an idol to his teenage nephew, Eli Goldstein, who reveres him as a brave, singular, Jewish war hero. As the truth about Poxl emerges, it forces Eli to face facts about the war he's romanticized and the vision of the man he's held so dear.
