About the Book

Former fashion model Sarah Shaw is an advocate for victims of human trafficking. As a Christian who is also Jewish, she believes in the Messiah and has the ability to receive messages from HaShem (The Name). While in Jerusalem to speak at a human trafficking conference, Sarah meets Israel’s prime minister, Natan Shafir, at an independence celebration. After he invites Sarah to give a presentation to a human rights committee at his office, she makes several attempts to schedule an appointment, thwarted each time by his staff. As she prepares to leave Israel, Sarah receives instructions from the Lord to personally deliver a warning to Prime Minister Shafir. When she finally succeeds in making an appointment with him, the resulting events plunge them both into an adventure that threatens their lives and the future of Israel. While fleeing from an unknown enemy with unlimited resources, Shafir and Sarah are rendered helpless and vulnerable. Their only hope lies in the God of Israel’s protection and provision as Shafir discovers the lengths HaShem will go for his beloved country. In this gripping adventure set in modern-day Israel, a message from God sparks a conflict between the forces of good and evil.
