Synopsis
The book follows Winterintz during her stay in Nahalin during the late 1980s. During her stay she is accused of being a spy and at one point is nearly stoned to death. She witnesses land being taken away from the villagers for subsidized Israeli settlements and survives by learning Arabic.[citation needed]
