Two from Isaac's House: A Story of Promises (Volume 2)

By Normandie Fischer

Description:

From author Normandie Fischer comes a new romantic suspense that takes the reader from the hills of Italy to the Jordanian desert and from there to an Israel on the brink of war with Hamas. Rina Lynne has never traveled far from Morehead City, North Carolina. So when she inherits her father’s secret stash, she’s ready to kick up her heels and go adventuring before she settles down to marry her long-time fiancé. First stop, Italy. Enter Tony (aka Anton), an engineering geek conned into helping his Israeli cousins as a sort-of spy. From the moment he meets Rina, he’s distracted, which is not a good idea when there’s already been murder and theft. And from the moment Rina meets Tony, she’s fascinated, which is also not a good idea. He’s an Arab-American, and she’s half-Jewish. And engaged. And then there are all those bodies dropping around them, each linked to the gathering storm in the Middle East.

Book Takeaway:

That God hasn't changed His mind about His People, Israel, and longs to see them meet their Messiah--although there are only hints of this in this first full-length book in the Isaac House series.

Why the author wrote this book:

When I lived and studied in Perugia, Italia, I knew a number of Palestinian Arabs who were brutal in their assessment of Israel, who marched and printed flyers and hoped all Jews would land in the sea. They even suggested I might be on an Israeli watch list because we were friends. A decade-plus later, after I'd become a Christian, I decided I wanted to craft more than non-fiction and wanted my words to touch the me I'd been before I met the Lord. All the best-sellers back then had super-macho heroes and heroines who knew karate. This led to a what-if: What if those boys in Perugia weren't just radical students? What if bodies started dropping, and the male and female leads were anything but hero-types and instead were average folk caught up in messiness? As a Christian, I take my grafted-into-the-family status very seriously; I love Israel. Stir all that in one pot, and you have Two from Isaac's House, a book I first wrote 24 years ago, which has been rewritten, revised, re-edited, and brought up to date.
