Checkmate - Paperback

by Ina E. Shicoff (Author)

Checkmate is the story of Sofia, an Italian woman that lives with her father and grandmother. She is about to marry Nate, who is from a Jewish family she has known since childhood. She begins to question the story of her mother's death when she was an infant. The facts are not adding up. She begins a journey to discover the truth, only to uncover more lies. The road opens a Pandora's box of family secrets and an unexpected education about Hasidic life and customs. It is a story about choices, crossed boundaries, fear and judgments. It's also about love, and how love leads you back home.
