Miriam Gil knows little about Israel. Her father won't talk about his life there or the brother he left behind when he came to Canada. Hurt and angry when he tells her to move out to make room for his new girlfriend, she enrolls in an Israeli university. She falls in love with Guy, a former combat soldier who dreams of peace. Miriam is caught off guard when her visa and passport application are rejected on the grounds that she's suspected of being a Syrian Christian. In rapid order, the university boots her out, her one friend is killed in a brawl, and Miriam is accused of murder by Israeli police.Despite troubling revelations about her father's past, Miriam must reconcile with him if she is to prove her innocence, reclaim her life, and hang on to her new found love.
