DNA Test Unlocks a Family Mystery Sephardic Jew Mathilda Nissim watches in horror as the Germans invade her beloved city of Salonika, Greece. What angers her most is the lack of resistance her people put up to their captors. In secret and at great risk to her life, she continues to publish her newspaper, calling her people to action. She doesn't trust God to help them. When she and her husband find out they are expecting a child, Mathilda may have to resort to desperate measures to ensure her daughter's survival.
Three generations later, college student Riley Payson and her cousin take a popular DNA test only to discover they don't share any common ancestors. In fact, the test shows Riley is a Sephardic Jew from Greece. This revelation shakes Riley's tenuous faith and sends her on a journey to discover what happened to her great-grandmother and how all this relates to her faith and her life today.

Im not pleased there was Christianity proselytising. It ruin the reading experience. This story and many like that needs to be tell but without proselytising. It's one of the things our nation suffered during inquisition. Force conversions and hiding identity. Later holocaust made many families forced to stay hiding their identity. As people like myself it's painful grow up in the shadows of inquisition And holocaust. When someone tells story about the hidden Jews who suffered centuries I wish no christianity proselytising because that exactly caust the suffering for Sephardic Jews. We have own faith. Judaism.
