What if a child is missing around Passover in Templeton, New York and the incident gives rise to the age-old myth of the blood ritual, alleging that Jews use Christian childrens blood in the making of matzoh. The town is torn apart by acts of violence until the childs body is found by the combined efforts of the police Sergeant, Bill Dalton and the Jewish town librarian, Miriam Roth. Based on a true incident the novel portrays that prejudice often bubbles beneath a veneer of accommodation and acceptance and shows it can happen here.
