A Love and Beyond - Dan Sofer

Winner of the 2016 Best Book Awards for Religious Fiction: A mysterious crime. A ruthless secret society. And a desperate bachelor...

Dave Schwarz didn't intend to solve the break-in at the City of David or the riddle of the Dead Sea Scrolls. He just wanted to get married.

When the religious British immigrant stumbles upon the mystical key to any girl's heart, however, his troubles only begin! The discovery draws him from the 'swamp' of Jerusalem singles into a web of mysterious crimes and ancient enigmas, and pits him against a ruthless secret society eager to trigger the End of Days. Dave must beat them to the prize or he will lose his one true love forever.  

Mandy Rosenberg has taken a break from New York to study in Jerusalem. In other words, she’s shopping for a husband. Down-to-earth but jaded by years of dating, she finds unexpected romance with Dave. But is he really her long-awaited hero? Or will the dark side of their relationship threaten all? 

A 'Jewish Da Vinci Code,' A Love and Beyond is a roller coaster ride in the legends and biblical archaeology of Jerusalem and Qumran. The colorful cast includes a sexy flatmate, a dodgy restaurateur, and a hotel manager with secrets of his own.
