A historical fiction set in Jerusalem just before the British left Palestine. The focus of this book is Rachel and her adventures in the old part of Jerusalem. This book focuses on how she must learn to love herself after the things she has done. As this is a Christian focused book, it talks about Gods love helping her love herself, well along with Moshe's love. I found it to be an enjoyable read, not as heavy on the Christian focus as the 1st book. Looking forward to the next book in the series.
