in the political and religious turmoil of the ancient city of
Damascus.
An unexpected earthquake and the
ever-present threat of nuclear war brings the young woman together with a
sympathetic Sephardic rabbi and an American tourist.
The three people's fears and
outlooks on death and humanity are challenged as they become pawns for competing
global powers vying for supremacy.
The world of religion, politics and
personal ambition are sharply brought to focus as imminent disaster reflects on
the inherent humanity of all people.
