When she learns that he has died, she tries to take her own life in despair.\nAfter awakening in the hospital, Judith learns that Hana, a Muslim Arab nurse, has saved her life by donating her own blood. While the two women develop a fragile bond, each can’t help but be drawn deeper into the political machinations tearing the country apart. After witnessing the repeated attacks inflicted on the Jews, Judith makes the life-changing decision to join the Zionist fight for Jerusalem. And Hana’s star-crossed love for Dr. David Cohen, an American Jew out of his element and working only to save lives, will put her own life in danger.\nThen the political situation worsens. When tensions erupt, a shocking act of violence threatens Judith and Hana’s friendship―and the destinies of everyone they love.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1542043913\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1542043913.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Sonne, Werner|Anderson, Steve\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
