An angel, a demon, and a journey to America—where the streets aren’t paved with gold, but danger, love, and unexpected friendships await.
Uriel the angel and Little Ash (short for Ashmedai) have lived in their tiny shtetl for centuries. But when a young emigrant from their village goes missing, they leave for America in search of her. Along the way, they meet Rose, whose best friend—and the love of her life—has abandoned her to marry a man, and Malke, who is desperate to uncover the truth about her father’s mysterious death.
From Ellis Island’s medical exams (and demons) to corrupt officials and mob bosses, their journey is anything but easy. A queer, Jewish fairytale for fans of Good Omens, this is a breathtaking story of identity, love, and the power of found family.
