A Different Kind of Light

About the Book

The Israeli Air Force´s elite rescue team left her for dead.

She pierced her nose

She hiked the desert.

She fell in love.

And then she left.

It was a big year.

The September after graduating high school, Nancy Wassner´s friends went to college. She went to Israel instead. Follow Nancy from behind the Chocolate Curtain of Hershey, Pennsylvania, through the beginnings of Israel´s Second Intifada, down cinnamon-scented ancient streets to the shore of the Mediterranean Sea and back to New England. And learn as she does to live in a way that can only be described in Hebrew.
