A gripping dystopian thriller following a journalist, a soldier, and a rebel musician as they fight for the survival of the Jewish people.

When a charismatic Israeli prime minister signs a sweeping peace agreement with Palestinian leader Mansour Salameh, the world cheers. But the “one-state solution” quickly reveals itself as a trap. Jews are stripped of their jobs, their rights, and their freedom. Ghettos rise. Death camps are built in the desert.

Diana Weil, once Israel’s most celebrated television journalist, is reduced to reporting on household tips for a state-run propaganda channel. Sarah Marciano, a young tank driver, escapes a slave labor camp with knowledge of a monstrous secret. Itamar Levy, a Torah scholar and gifted pianist turned rebel commander, forges a clandestine army from the remnants of a shattered nation.

As the systematic extermination of Israel’s Jews accelerates, these unlikely heroes must find a way to warn their people, resist their oppressors, and rekindle the flame of a civilization on the edge of annihilation.

From the River is a harrowing and urgent novel about the oldest hatred, the resilience of a people, and the price of willful blindness—set in a tomorrow that history has already foreshadowed.
