Her desperation leads her to Ettie, the daughter of a rabbi whose years spent eavesdropping on her father enables her to create a mystical Jewish creature, a rare and unusual golem, who is sworn to protect Hanni's daughter, Lea. Once Ava is brought to life, she and Lea and Ettie become eternally entwined, their paths fated to cross, their fortunes linked. What does it mean to lose your mother? How much can one person sacrifice for love? In a world where evil can be found at every turn, we meet remarkable characters that take us on a stunning journey of loss and resistance, the fantastical and the mortal, in a place where all roads lead past the Angel of Death and love is never-ending.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlice Hoffman is the author of more than thirty works of fiction, including \u003ci\u003eThe Book of Magic\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMagic Lessons\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe World That We Knew\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ePractical Magic\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Rules of Magic \u003c\/i\u003e(a Reese Witherspoon Book Club Pick), the Oprah's Book Club Selection \u003ci\u003eHere on Earth\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Red Garden\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Dovekeepers\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Museum of Extraordinary Things\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Marriage of Opposites\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eFaithful\u003c\/i\u003e.
