Description
It is early afternoon on May 14, 1948, in the world's most sacred city. Tension is high, as this is the day when British troops will hand over the key to Zion Gate and depart. They will leave Jewish and Muslim forces that have been fighting for months over control of a holy city they are all willing to die for.
Caught up in this historic moment are a striking cast of characters whose stories make Jerusalem Vigil an unforgettable novel that is impossible to put down.
