The Covenant

When her family - husband Jonathan and daughter Ilana - are kidnapped from their home in Jerusalem, Elise frantically calls her Bubbee (grandmother) Leah for help. Soon Leah and her four friends, now grandmothers and great grandmothers, band together to help Elise. The four women made a covenant when they were in Auschwitz that if they survived the war, they would do anything and everything within their power to make sure that they each lived happily for the rest of their days. As the women reunite to help find Elise's family, we learn of more serious problems plaguing Israel - the threat of Hamas and the lives that are destroyed at the hands of terrorists. And we discover, most importantly, that not just Jews are harmed in the fighting. A great, powerful novel.
