About this ebook

In Israel, survivors of trauma—whether terror attack, war, and/or any other kind—elicit empathy and intolerance in equal measure, with few appreciating the courage needed to trust again. Mystery novel IN PURSUIT OF TRUST focuses on the personal struggles that face Sue Yamin, a survivor-in-denial, set against the backdrop of a country traumatized by the real-life Israeli bank-shares collapse (1983), yet hesitant to seek justice or recompense.
IN PURSUIT OF TRUST opens as best friends Tiki Weinstein and Sue Yamin, both American immigrants, are celebrating the first year anniversary of their Jerusalem-based business, TS Graphics. When on that very night Tiki’s husband Chuck apparently commits suicide in the wake of Israel’s bank-shares collapse and just before the discovery of an enormous withdrawal from the Weinstein’s bank account, the two friends’ first priorities are to clear Chuck’s name and find the missing money. Overwhelmed by the unfamiliar role of business manager in which she finds herself, Sue begins to question her capabilities. She maintains an uneasy balance between her marital obligations to husband Yossi and her increased responsibilities at TS Graphics, until a violent run-in with a powerful client named Yaron unleashes a childhood memory Sue has kept hidden, even from herself. Sue knows its revelation not only will ruin her chances of keeping her marriage intact but also will destroy any idea of saving TS Graphics—now under threat of closure by the bank and Yaron’s henchmen. Yet Sue draws strength from what she has learned about healing from trauma, though it means confronting her fears, childless marriage and long-held (but false) assumptions about life.
Ultimately, she acquires the trust in herself that she is pursuing.
IN PURSUIT OF TRUST explores the power of loyalty, the importance of coming to terms with one’s past, and the need to view life’s traumas as unavoidable stepping-stones on the road to self-actualization.
