Summary paragraph

People grab on to anything tangible, anything real to define themselves in a world of virtual reality and false pretense. In this reality, what you 'own' and who you pretend to be drives people to reach for things that aren't theirs in this quest for self-definition. It is in this world that a troubled young black woman abandoned by her mother at the age of six, and an aging Rabbi from the Bronx conflicted by the calling of his faith as he approaches the latter years of his generation spanning ministry find themselves intertwined in a mystifying adventure that will leave them both forever haunted with who they were meant to be unless they can overcome the barriers only they themselves control. That is, if they can manage to learn to trust each other and stay alive in the process.
