Publisher's Summary:
Rabbi Gabrielle takes leave from her rabbinical duties to pursue a doctorate in biblical studies at the University of Chicago. She is summoned to Israel by the Director of Antiquities in Jerusalem when her scholarly live-in boy friend cannot be found to help investigate the robbery of a newly discovered cave at Qumran, site of the famous Dead Sea Scrolls. In the search to find him, Gabrielle becomes aware of her friend's involvement in this robbery and while attempting to shield him, gets swept into a cloak and dagger intrigue involving the Catholic Church and the Government of Israel.

Sad, Bad, Egad!!!
Roger Herst can spin a good tale, but his stories would be vastly improved if he did not create his lead character as a rabbi. The characterization of Rabbi Gabrielle is not true to a rabbi and is certainly not in keeping with Jewish morals, standards or practices. She acts like a self centered teenager. She is amoral. and hypocritical. In an earlier book, she sleeps with a congregant and she has a long term affair with a Christian, while refusing to perform the marriage of a Jew to a non-Jew. In this book, she is on a different path and is no longer a pulpit rabbi, which is an improvement. All of the books are poorly edited and have poor transition between the multiple story lines. I cannot believe I have read several of the books in this series, but the stories have been interesting, as long as I pretended "rabbi" Gabrielle was not a rabbi. With this one, I am done and will not read any more books in this series. Roger Herst would do well to switch to adventure stories with no religious themes. He can tell a good story.
RABBI GABBI IGNITES A TEMPEST
Here the author moves Rabbi Gabbi from her American roots to her ancestral homeland,Israel. The events of the tale take the reader thru a series of twists and turns making it an intense trade for Rabbi Gabbi fans. Will she ever find lasting love, have a family or is she destined to have a word of loves and never a forever...
Rabbi Gabrielle visits Israel
I wish the author had picked up where he left off in the last book plus he didn't explain in detail what had happened to her husband...that was disappointing. Regardless I still enjoyed the book and was sorry (once again) to see another character killed off. I look forward to more books in this series.
