Eine Billion Dollar by Andreas Eschbach

An ordinary man unexpectedly inherits an almost unimaginable fortune under strict conditions: he must use the money to make amends for historical injustices tied to a powerful nation. Thrust into a high-stakes political and moral drama, he attempts to deploy vast financial resources to influence governments, media and public opinion, confronting entrenched interests, ethical dilemmas and the practical limits of using wealth to force societal change.
