About This Book

An angel and a demon from a small shtetl in Eastern Europe follow their community's young emigrants to America, where they discover corruption, supernatural threats, and the fragility of the American dream. A warm, inventive debut blending Jewish folklore, early 20th-century immigrant history, and supernatural mystery. Winner of the 2023 Mythopoeic Fantasy Award.
