About this ebook

Ensign S. Paul Miner, a Jewish naval offi cer, handles court-martial cases at the
U.S. base in Morocco during his two-year assignment there. His legal ability is
sharply tested when he defends an Offi cer accused of a homosexual assault against
an infl uential Arab aide to the monarchy who is visiting the base to decide if the
Navy will get a ten-year extension of its lease. Prior to his involvement in the trial,
Miner, whose hidden fi rst name is Saul, comes across Sephardic Jews whose
ancestors dwelled in Morocco for most of the last 2,000 years. In the face of their
helping restore his Jewish identity and pride, he nonetheless meets and falls in
love with a married, Russian Orthodox woman of the aristocratic class whose
family fl ed St. Petersburg in 1917 and ultimately settled in Tangier to make a new
life for themselves.
