Synopsis

Will Leah Perl, a young Jewish girl from Kalish, ever be reunited with the young sister she dotes on?

It's 1908 in the Russian Empire. Anti-semitism is on the rise.
After a dubious deal with her parents, Leah's aunt brings her to the safety of the East End of London.
She works hard to raise the money she believes will enable her to pay for her family to join her in England.
Forced to leave her aunt and uncle, she marries badly, survives the Great War and the Depression and, during the London Blitz, is displaced with her family to a vicarage in rural Buckinghamshire.

The novel spans the 20th century following one family, four generations and how their lives take various paths, and encounter different fates in Poland, England, Palestine and Israel.
There is tragedy and comedy, hope and despair, and a final resolution on the brink of the 21st century.
