Echoes of Gedaliah II E Z Ben-Asher

Was Theodor Herzl assassinated? If so, which of his many enemies might have taken the final step to eliminate the iconic founder of modern Israel? Could it have been the Catholic Church? The Russian Empire? The anti-Zionist Jews who hated Herzl as a mortal enemy of the God of Abraham? Or was it the British white settlers from Uganda who could not bear to see their land transformed into "Jewganda" and taken from them by the "lawyer Jew from Vienna" who would be King? In Volume Il of Echoes of Gedaliah the deep, dual timeline story comes to an exciting, unexpected conclusion. Join young Tzipora and Neshama as their love story becomes a story for the ages, while they uncover events that were never meant to see the light of day, hidden truths that could shake the very foundation of the Jewish State if they became public. Follow Tzipi and Nesh as they journey deep into the world of suppressed Zionist history, mystic Judaism, Kabbalah, and the dangerous undercurrents of modern Israel's continued struggle to stay one step ahead of disaster - from within as well as from without. The concluding volume of this sweeping novel is filled with discovery and violence, passion and faith, and will expose the reader to a side of the Jewish faith that very few modern Jews are exposed to in their insular lives. No reader, Jew or Gentile alike, will be able to finish this eye-opening tale without a better appreciation of the complicated history of Judaism, the internecine affairs of the Jews themselves, and of the future of the Promised Land
