Opis

Two children, one Christian and one Jewish, are separated in Europe during WWII. Claire and Dora find new homes in America and Israel, but continue searching for each and for a faith to sustain them in violent times. Dora becomes a Messianic Jew and her family battles to keep Israel safe from attack. Claire's Christianity matures as she learns how to serve others instead of control them. In their middle-age, both women must helplessly watch their children grow away from them and their values. They try to shield their families from the suffering they themselves endured in Hitler's Europe. But they cannot escape the sorrow of seeing their children swept into social revolution, failed marriages, and wars fought by their adopted countries.In the end, they find each other and a faith that transcends cultural and religious boundaries.
