A nation will stand or fall, and it's all up to one World War II fighter ace. The old city of Jerusalem is under siege in February 1948. Food, fuel, and weapons are scarce. The U.S. arms embargo against the Jews is still in effect, although the British openly sell weapons to the Arabs. David Meyer is given a dangerous assignment -- to hire pilots and buy planes that could fly to Palestine the instant statehood is declared. It could cost him his U.S. citizenship, and Ellie, his bride, would be in harm's way. Worse, the Arab operative Montgomery seems to know his every move. Then Haganah leader Moshe Sachar, who has just wed the beautiful Rachel Lubetkin, becomes the target of an evil conspiracy. David had signed up for the war, but not to carry the weight of a nation. Especially when betrayal swirls in the very air. - Back cover.
