"Raymond has only two real connections: to the feral cat he's tamed and to a blind ninety-two-year-old woman in his building who introduced herself with a curious question: Have you seen Luis Velez? Mildred Gutermann, a German Jew who narrowly escaped the Holocaust, has been alone since her caretaker disappeared. She turns to Raymond for help, and as he tries to track Luis down, a deep and unexpected friendship blossoms between the two."--Provided by publisher.
