About This Book
After returning to home, Norah Johnson, a popular novelist and lecturer wants nothing more than just to run away as far she could. Arriving at her destination, the Red Sea resort of Eilat, Israel, she desperately wants to forget what she had witnessed at her home, an unforgivable act done by her husband of eighteen years, Gordon. By a chance encounter, she meets and falls in love with a young Israeli Army Major, Zeev Bitan, almost half her age, who for the first time in his life feels that he found the woman he was looking for. He and his three friends are on a pass from the Israeli Army, trying to recover from the emotional turmoil after participating in the battle of Jenin. Norah, as a novelist, takes an interest in their story, and their wish to come clear as to what really happened in that refugee camp, she promises them to write the true story. To be fair, she decides to interview Palestinians, to hear their side of the story. Zeev provides the name of the contact person, but things did not turn out as they were planned with devastating results. There are only two things that keeps Norah alive, one is her deep love for Ze'ev and the hope that help arrives before it is too late.
