Daniel felt he would burst from anticipation and curiosity at any moment, until finally Max took a deep breath and said, "I'll tell you one more thing about your father, but that's it. I won't be able to answer any more questions. "A tense silence filled the room. "I'm listening," Daniel said intently. "Your father," Max continued in a trembling voice, "your father was an officer in the Nazi army. "A chance encounter between Daniel, an Israeli Defense Forces officer, and Malka, a high school girl, sets off a journey of self-discovery that unravels astonishing family secrets. Spanning Poland, Germany, and Israel-and covering the turmoil of two world wars-Two Drops of Blood traces the extraordinary saga of a Jewish family through the upheavals of the twentieth century. The story begins with the lives of twin brothers, Meir and Yaakov, as they grow up in a small Jewish town in Poland. Their paths diverge dramatically, leading them to opposite sides of World War I. The next generation comes of age in the shadow of rising Nazism and spreading antisemitism. As World War II breaks out and the machinery of extermination begins, the family's descendants embark on a harrowing struggle for survival-resisting the Nazis, joining daring underground operations, and living as partisans in the forests. Eventually, the surviving members reunite in Israel, where the family's astonishing secrets are finally revealed. Two Drops of Blood is a sweeping, emotionally charged family saga-filled with unforgettable characters and acts of quiet heroism-that surprises, moves, and grips the reader from beginning to end. Maksim Ben Kalifa, 67, is married, a father and grandfather. He teaches electricity and electronics and serves as deputy principal at ORT Aerospace Industries. A passionate student of history, this is his debut novel.
