Longing and Belonging

A Novel

Reuven and Racheli of the bestseller No One’s Child, capture our hearts again.

As the insecure Racheli tiptoes through life and prays she won’t have a tic in public, her husband Reuven has finally discovered his true identity. He has a last name, caring uncles, and even a grandmother. But no one knows the fate of his parents, who disappeared on that dark day in Peru. What happened to them? Should Reuven journey to Peru to search for the answers?

Meanwhile, in the U.S., Raizy is struggling with a lifetime of built-up pain. When she decides to take action and piece together her confusing childhood, she discovers what her parents wanted to hide. She stands face to face with the bitter secrets, but when all is said and done, the choice of how to respond remains hers alone.

Spanning continents and generations, Longing and Belonging is a layered, emotionally rich novel about loyalty, identity, and the quiet decisions that shape who we become. With warmth, insight, and a deep understanding of the ties that bind, it explores what happens when the truth won’t stay buried—and when family is far more than a matter of birth.

The surprising conclusion to No One’s Child.
