Here's the set-up:
Escaping with only their lives, young immigrants, Rija and her husband Josef flee war-torn Bosnia. With their young daughter, they arrive in America with hopes of a new life. Only months after their arrival, Josef, lured away by dreams of easy money, abandons his family for a world of crime and violence. On her own, Rija strives to keep the family together. Determined to move off welfare, she lands a job and moves toward a better future. Just as things improve, a new family crisis threatens her plans and when Josef reappears, Rija in need of help, lets him back into her life. For a time reconciliation seems possible but while Rija works toward stability, Josef’s behavior goes from helpful to erratic. Often jobless, money still flows freely through his hands. His abrupt comings and goings and unknown sources of cash trouble her especially when she discovers hidden money and a gun. Following an arrest, the resourceful Josef finds a way to avoid jail time. Using his multilingual skills, he agrees to become a police informant, infiltrating the local Russian mafia and getting close to the local mob boss. When Rija seeks help, she finds she must take matters into her own hands.
One Reviewer Notes:
Lee Fishman's novel about a couple who escaped the war in Sarajevo and their struggles to make it in America is a study in contrasts. Rija, a young wife and mother, confronts the challenges of her new life in Philadelphia with gritty determination. Her husband, the charming Josef, drifts into a life of crime and manages to turn up with piles of cash and trouble at just the wrong time. The action starts early and keeps building. This is a great read!
