This is the first in a series of four historical fiction novels based on the writings of the eyewitness Josephus. In Act I of the book one begins to wonder if it was fate, destiny, or some divine plan that brought four very different travelers together in a struggle to survive what should have been a routine trip to Rome. These new friends and their families somehow found themselves playing critical roles at a focal point in the history of western civilization. For as winds helped to spread the great fire in Rome, they also carried embers east toward Judea, where they threatened to ignite a conflict that would forever change the world for Jews and Christians. In between the historical events of that time, there's the story of the people involved. You get to meet them in Cry for Jerusalem.

An Israeli Best Seller A Thrilling Tale of Love, Loss, and Revenge Set primarily in post-WWII Israel, Lone Wolf in Jerusalem is a suspenseful, action-packed novel that is a worthy contribution to Jewish historical fiction.

During the war, after losing his family to Hitler's ''final solution,'' young David leads a courageous group of Jewish resistance fighters against the Nazis. When Germany is defeated, he journeys to Jerusalem, to find a new battle brewing. British occupation forces are entrenched in Israel, blocking Holocaust survivors from immigrating to their Jewish homeland. Determined to help his people find freedom, David uses his guerilla skills to single-handedly wreak havoc on the British. As he begins his dangerous quest, David meets and falls in love with the beautiful Shoshana, a young Holocaust survivor whose spirit may have gotten damaged beyond repair. Recounting the tragic losses and heroic triumphs of the Jewish people during this critical stage in their history, Lone Wolf in Jerusalem brings these events to life in a new and inspirational way, making them accessible to a new generation. Originally written in Hebrew, this book quickly became a best seller in Israel.
