Overview
Meir Shalev, an emissary of the Haganah on a covert mission in Nazi Germany to rescue Jews from the closing jaws of the holocaust, is captured while attempting to save the children of two prominent families. He orchestrates a daring escape from captivity, but his troubles are far from over, and the echoes from the fog of war will reverberate far into the future. Years later, a young New York artist feels these echoes as she fights to save her marriage and hold her family together in the face of the revelation of long-buried secrets. From the smoldering ashes of Europe to the bloody battles of the Six-Day and Yom Kippur wars to the struggles of a fledging nation, Naomi's Quest traces the stories of two women and a man as their lives unfold against the turbulent backdrop of the birth of the Israeli nation-state. An epic saga rooted in real historical events, Naomi's Quest weaves together a cast of unforgettable characters and culminates in a shocking, explosive finale.
