David Wolfe is a successful American lawyer being primed
for a run for Congress. But when the phone rings and he
hears the voice of Hana Arif—the Palestinian woman with
whom he had a secret affair in law school—he begins a
completely unexpected journey.
The next day, the prime minister of Israel is assassinated
by a suicide bomber while visiting San Francisco. Soon,
Hana is accused of being the mastermind behind the murder.
Now David faces an agonizing choice: Will he, a Jew,
represent her?
The most challenging case of David’s career requires that
he delve deep into the lives of Hana and her militant
Palestinian husband, all the way back to Israel and the
West Bank. There he uncovers the couple’s dangerous
connections…culminating in an explosive trial where the
stakes are Hana’s life—and the future of two peoples.
