| An Arms-Dealing Family Confront a Moral Dilemma in the Nuclear Age. During a family reunion in their ancestral castle, the famed Von Kassel family, who has been engaged in arms dealing for a hundred years, suddenly find themselves in possession of stolen plutonium able to create the most destructive weapon on earth. Always aloof from the moral implications of their business, the family is torn apart by the potential of this material and it ignites conflicts that have long been avoided by their family solidarity and the insulation of their wealth and power. Through fascinating and startling relationships within the family the reader is drawn into the web of power and intrigue that motivates people who had once believe they are above any moral or ethical considerations. |
