Promise of Zion series
Dov is a Jewish boy who has survived the horror of the Nazi death camps. He clings to the hope of one day seeing his family again, and heads straight for Jerusalem, where his mother had told him they would all meet again. Emily Parkinson, daughter of a British major stationed in Israel, is spoiled and adventurous. When Dov and Emily's worlds collide, the adventure only begins as they live through the war of Israel's independence, fighting for the rights of the Jewish people, saving orphans from starvation, and learning to trust in Someone bigger than themselves and all they have been through.
