Ben Kamal hasn't investigated a case since his last assignment with Danielle. But missing children in his native West Bank capture his interest, reminding him of his own lost children. Danielle Barnea had put her career on hold as well until a personal tragedy left her with nothing else to turn to. Her first case is the apparently random murder of a Jerusalem shopkeeper who was also one of Israel's earliest war heroes.

What Ben and Danielle don't know is that their separate investigations are linked by a secret born of the blood that forged a nation - and that now has has the power to topple its government and plunge the Middle East into a maelstrom of chaos and destruction. To stop history from being rewritten, Ben and Danielle must follow a dangerous path to a truth that no one wants revealed, a truth someone has already killed to keep hidden behind the Pillars of Solomon.
