Description
In 1945, Jewish refugees set out for Palestine by the tens of thousands. Those who made it were hunted as illegals by the British authorities there and relied on the underground to take them in--they blended with the population, joining the different factions fighting for an independent Israel. City of Secrets follows one survivor, Brand, as he tries to regain himself after losing everyone he's ever loved. Now driving a taxi provided--like his new identify--by the underground, he navigates the twisting streets of Jerusalem as well as the overlapping, sometimes deadly loyalties of the resistance. He falls in love with Eva, a fellow survivor and member of his cell; reclaims his faith; and commits himself to the revolution, accepting dangerous secret missions from their cell's dashing leader, Asher. By the time Brand understands the truth, it's too late, and the tragedy that ensues changes history.
