the dovekeepers
The Dovekeepers tells the story of Masada, a Jewish stronghold, through the lives of four ladies.
Each has been forced out of their home and has made the journey through the desert to Masada where they find themselves working in the dovecotes.
As their lives become intertwined they slowly begin to open themselves to one another and are able to heal the deep wounds they carry.
Set in a time of exile and destruction for the Jewish people, this novel brings to life the circumstances surrounding this historical event.
After reading, look up some pictures of Masada and see where this all really happened. It makes it all seem real.
