Driven By Avenge
Barnes and Noble customer: Bbefron
Why won’t America wake up? After 5 years of living with the memory of his father’s twitching legs bounce against the old bootlegging boat and the rope squeezing the skin under his 5 o’clock shadow, the revenge pounds Yael’s head like a hammer. But it’s the charred Swastika on his Pop’s chalky chest that shapes avenge like sculptor’s hands and soothes his pain.
In America, the Great Depression has robbed many of their dignity. And make men consider alternatives to democracy, like the fascists in Germany that play on the newsreels in the film theaters, now close enough to walk to from any Newark apartment. But as eighteen-year-old Yael punches his best friend above the Star of David on Harry’s boxing shorts, he knows exactly where he is going. He has joined the resistance of Jewish boxers called Newark Minutemen. They work for MobKing Longie Zwillman down in the third ward fighting against the Nazi soldiers marching down Main Streets with their hands saluted in the air. If the FBI is willing to pay the Jewish mafia under the table to topple Hitler’s German American satellite called the Bund, it’s almost too late. But between first amendment rights and the divide between those who refuse to go into another war and those who just want food on the table, there’s no choice. Hands are tied.
Yael’s choice to fight is simple. That is until he gets hit with a right hook of emotions for Krista, the daughter of the Nazi party leader. His friends warn him not to cross the line, but when he goes undercover and trains to become the Bund’s secret police, the horrors drive him to rescue Krista from her Nazi youth camp in Long Island. But between her betrothed Nazi officer and a foreign culture, the star crossed affair is doomed for failure.
