New York Times bestselling author delivers a stunning new novel.
An extraordinary story of a man and woman whose similar family ancestries have led them to remarkably different places in modern America.
Charlie Blair is an FBI agent in Cheyenne, Wyoming; Lauren Miller is a reporter for the Jewish News in New York. Arriving in Jackson Hole to monitor an anti-Semitic group that has drawn national attention, each encounters the stark crossroads of American culture – traditional values like optimism and tolerance versus the antagonistic beliefs of the radical Right. When Charlie and Lauren finally meet, they find compelling but unlikely intersection in their own livews: he is barely aware of his own Jewish great-great-grandparents, and she is so assimilated her heritage hardly matters to her.
With skillful narrative grace and humour that is unique, Isaacs has written a wry, surprising and delightfully crafted novel that will ensure deep satisfaction.

About the Author:
From a bestselling author comes an extraordinary story of a man and woman whose similar family ancestries have led them to remarkably different places in modern America.
Charlie Blair is a jaded FBI agent in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Estranged from his wife and daughter, when the opportunity to go undercover to monitor an anti-Semitic militia group that has drawn national attention in his hometown of Jackson Hole presents itself, he jumps at the chance to escape his grey life for a while. But undercover work is more lonely, and dangerous, than he anticipated ...
Lauren Miller is a reporter for the 'Jewish News' in New York. When she reads about the anti-Semitic violence in Wyoming, she sees her chance for her big break. What she doesn’t foresee is being attracted to a member of the very militia she has arrived to condemn.
When Charlie and Lauren finally meet, they find compelling but unlikely intersection in their own lives: he is barely aware of his own Jewish ancestors, and she is so assimilated her heritage hardly matters to her. But as the radical Right-wing group starts planning its most violent and explosive demonstration to date, they both must confront some very real truths about their lives, and each other.
With skillful narrative grace and humour that is unique, Susan Isaacs has written a wry, surprising and delightfully crafted novel that spans three generations in modern America.
