Ashes and Olives is a breathtaking historical novel of war, love, resistance, and resilience set against the backdrop of Nazi Germany and British-occupied Palestine. Rachel and David are young fighters caught between history's flames and their own forbidden desire. From smuggling Jewish secrets out of Berlin to planning daring prison breaks in Haifa, their bond becomes both weapon and sanctuary in a world at war. As the tides of revolution swell and empires crumble, Rachel and David navigate coded messages, moral choices, and impossible loyalties. From olive groves whispering secrets to refugee caravans in the shadows, they fight not only for survival but for a future rooted in love and legacy. For fans of The Nightingale, All the Light We Cannot See, and The Tattooist of Auschwitz, Ashes and Olives delivers a gripping, poetic, and emotionally rich journey through the fire of history and the roots that endure beneath it.
