She survived the siege. Now, she must build a new world.
In 62 CE, young Bruria is thrust into adulthood when Roman legions attack her hometown of Gamla. Heeding her father's dying words-"Choose life!"-she escapes to Jerusalem, where she is adopted by the visionary Yohanan ben Zakai. Amid the violence and political unrest, Bruria becomes a key ally in Yohanan's secret mission to preserve Judaism after the Temple's inevitable destruction.
As war looms, Bruria matures into a fierce woman, balancing her role in Yohanan's efforts with the challenges of love, loyalty, and self-discovery. She works with him to create a new religious structure, one that can survive the fall of the Temple. But as Zealots threaten their lives and Roman spies infiltrate their ranks, the stakes grow ever higher.
In the shadow of a crumbling world, Bruria faces impossible choices-about faith, survival, and identity.
Will the Jewish people survive, or will Yohanan's vision fail?
For fans of sweeping historical Jewish fiction, Bruria is a must-read tale of resilience and a desperate fight against imperialist genocide while maintaining God's teachings of Justice and Righteousness.
