Inhalt

15th century Spain: Jewish citizens are under siege as the Spanish Inquisition quickly spreads its stronhold throughout the counrty. The Jewish philosophers, rabbis, and artisans that once served the monarchy, have now been converted, banished or tortured. While many chose to become Christians, others were determined to secretly uphold their Jewish heritage - even if it meant risking their own lives....
With a father murdered and a brother's whereabouts unknown, Yonah Toledano has vowed to honor the memory of his family by remaining a Jew. Forced to wander like a nomad across the vast landscapes of Spain, Yonah takes on the guise of a Christian, toiling at manual labour - and desperately clinging to the memories and rites of a vanished culture.
Everywhere Yonah goes, betrayal lies in wait, and once again, he must flee...until his incredible journey leads him to an apprenticeship with an old physician - and the love of a strong Marano woman. Gaining the trust and respect of his patients, Yonah at last is able to lay roots and dedicate his life to serving others as a healer. But when his past inevitably meets up with him, he must make a decision that could alter the course of his destiny forever....
