In 1939, the British restricted Jewish Immigration into Palestine by enforcing a policy known as "The White Paper." A Jewish underground organization known as the Irgun, fought furiously against them. After the Holocaust ended in 1945, the British continued to restrict Jews from entering the country and the Irgun renewed their fight against the British.

The Girl from Babylon tells the fascinating story of one of the Irgun's surviving members, Adina-Hay Nissan.

Adina served the Irgun as a messenger and played a vital role in some of the most historic missions in early Israeli history, including the infamous bombing of the King David Hotel.

And Ari Derin, Adina-Hay Nissan: - One cool day in September in Toronto, Canada, Adina-Hay Nissan hailed a van to travel to the grocery store. The driver of that van was a young, aspiring writer by the name of Ari Derin. Ari was intrigued by Adina's life story, and the pair soon developed a rapport. Adina asked Ari if he would write her life story, and Ari agreed. The result is the book you are about to enjoy. The Girl from Babylon is the true-life story of Adina-Hay Nissan. It is a courageous and inspiring coming of age story. You will question the true meaning of sacrifice, and what it means to fight for what you believe in. Adina now lives in Toronto with her children Ray and Ruth and loving grandchildren. Ari Derin also lives and works in Toronto. He is a lifelong writer and has published film reviews and celebrity interviews for tribute.ca.
