I put a spell on you
In modern-day Jerusalem, British immigrant Dave Schwarz is thirty years old and still single. In short, his life is over.
He decides to give up on love but his best friend, Ben, won't let him.
Ben, an archaeologist at the City of David Institute and happily married to a Jewish supermodel, tells Dave his secret. Deep in the City of David is a restaurant. But this is no ordinary coffee shop. Take any date there and she is guaranteed to fall in love with you.
At first Dave doesn't believe his friend but, having nothing left to lose, he gives it a try.
And... it works.
And that is when Dave's troubles really begin.
The secret draws him into a web of baffling crimes, archaeological and biblical enigmas that involve the City of David, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the concept of soul mates, as well as conspiracies concerning the legends of King David and the true founder of Christianity. The secret also pits Dave against dark forces that itch to trigger the End of Days.
Holding out for a hero
Mandy Rosenberg has taken a break from New York to study in Jerusalem. In other words, she's shopping for a husband.
Down-to-earth but jaded by years of dating, she finds unexpected romance with Dave. But is he really her long-awaited hero? Or will the dark side of their relationship threaten all?
A Love and Beyond is a lighthearted rollercoaster ride through the sights and secrets of Jerusalem. The colorful cast includes a sexy flatmate, a dodgy restaurateur, and a hotel manager with secrets of his own.
In this tale of love and deception, hope and guilt, courage and misadventure, Dave must choose between shattering his heart and risking his life.
"Tightly-written, with a vein of wry comedy that finally erupts into a frenzy of biblical proportions, the story keeps us compulsively turning pages... A very fun read!" -- Yael Unterman, author of The Hidden of Things: Twelve Stories of Love & Longing (Yotzeret Publications)
