Blood Covenant is a mystical thriller, pitting an unlikely team of four against a conspiracy so dark you will be astonished as it comes to light. A Congressman’s young granddaughter has been ritually murdered, bled out, a Hebrew letter carved into her forehead. Gideon Schwartz, a family friend and a long-retired FBI agent, is called to the crime scene. When he returns home, he finds an email message from Rabbi Moshe Katan: “Dear Mr. Schwartz . . . I’m very much afraid the murder of that child is only the beginning . . . ” Their dialogue intensifies with each ritual murder. By the time Katan becomes a person of significant interest, he has gone into hiding. But, he has allies operating openly: Sidney Lee, the head of a powerful Chinese trading family; his wife, Stephanie, an intuitive adept; and the young Daniel, a savant who can bend the fabric of space and time. What unfolds is a multi-dimensional kabbalistic chessboard. Pieces accelerate to astonishing speed. Age-old secrets burst to the surface. The end game will leave you . . . breathless.
Mitchell Chefitz is the author of The Seventh Telling, a Los Angeles Times best-selling novel, and a story collection The Curse of Blessings, now translated into German, Korean, and Mandarin. Lawrence Kushner writes, "Mitchell Chefitz is one of the finest of a new generation of American Kabbalists. He brings an intuitive grasp of the mystical to everyday life. His teaching is disturbing, profound and inspiring." Blood Covenant is intriguing, compelling, and, at its conclusion, simply stunning.
