The Rabbi's Holocaust Heroes Museum - Paperback

by Seth B. Goldsmith (Author)

The idyllic life of the Rabbi of Resurrection Bay, Chani Kahn, is shattered by a cold sensitive disease, especially problematic for people living in Alaska. Her surgeon husband, Marc Cohn, MD, is privately suffering from a traumatic stress disorder after a clandestine trip to Morocco on behalf of the State of Israel; he is then challenged by an emotionally draining medical malpractice lawsuit that has anti-Semitic overtones. While visiting the Yad Vashem Memorial in Jerusalem, Chani unearths key information about a longstanding Holocaust related family mystery. Delving deeper into this mystery Chani and Marc embark on a journey of personal and professional discovery to the Philippines, Israel, Miami Beach and the Pacific Northwest. Their discoveries lead into the next stage of their lives, that is, planning and opening a Holocaust Heroes Museum in Seward, Alaska. The museum highlights the true stories of more than thirty men, women and teenagers who saved tens of thousands of lives during the Holocaust. This historical novel weaves together the past, present and future of the Kahn-Cohn family.
