Sara Stein investigates an explosion at the excavation site of the ancient Israeli fortress Masada that killed its chief archaeologist Aaron Salzman. When a network for smuggling stolen artifacts is revealed, the cause of the incident points to possible murder.
As a criminal investigator of Jewish descent working in Berlin, Sara Stein was used to operating independently of everyone else. Her keen instincts and sound judgement enabled her to navigate sure-footedly through many sensitive cases. But it was not until she found herself investigating the murder of an Israeli DJ that politics and religion played such an important role in her life. Now facing new challenges as a detective in Tel Aviv, Sara continues to strive for truth and justice while dreaming of peace for her beloved new home, Israel.
