A Sweeping Historical Novel of a Young Woman and a Young Nation Searching for Identity, for Meaning to Life
Out of the ashes of the Holocaust, a magnificent novel of indomitable courage and hope. Ellie, a young American photojournalist, finds herself in the Jerusalem of 1947. She unwittingly becomes a pawn in a political chess game when she photographs some ancient scrolls discovered by Bedouins. David seems to love her dearly, but Moshe has a purpose and commitment in life that intrigues her more than she can say. Through it all, Ellie discovers a people, a spirit and a person who profoundly change the direction of her life. This first book in THE ZION CHRONICLES vividly portrays the intense struggle of the Jewish people in the aftermath of the Holocaust and the forces, within and without, which engulf the Middle East in conflict and controversy even today.
With only six weeks left before the British pull out of Israel, Moshe and his Jewish troops struggle to keep the Arab-held pass of Bab el Wad open to a food convoy that will save their people, while David and Ellie begin a desperate search for a weapons frieghter destined for the Arabs.
