Found wounded and barefoot on the steps of nearby synagogue, clad in only a nightdress,  Havah is taken to safety by a rabbi and his son, Arel, who are shocked to hear the words of the Kaddish come from a mere girl. No woman should know the holy writings.

Havah is welcomed into the house of the local midwife, where she becomes part of the family and close-knit communitythough some eye her with suspicion as the rumor of her praying spreads. And while she now lives with the girl who is Arels intended, his kind face is never far from her mind. With the pain of her familys death and the threat of pogrom always hanging over her, the fiercely intelligent and independent Havah knows that a bigger world awaitsif shes brave enough to meet it . . .
