The judge, broken by a world too messy for justice, is haunted by his past
His orphan granddaughter has fallen in love with her handsome tutor, despite their different backgrounds and ideals
The cook’s heart is with his son, who is working in a New York restaurant, mingling with an underclass from all over the globe as he seeks somewhere to call home
