The Jewish Cossack (Legends of the Lamed-Vav Book 2)

The legend of the Lamed-Vav that began in “Simple Chaim” now moves to the next generation in “The Jewish Cossack”. Nissim Kozlovsky has been raised by his mother, Raizel, to believe in the legend of the Lamed-Vav, 36 hidden people who are the repositories of God's compassion in this world. But in the terrible early days of WW II, Nissim feels torn between the Lamed-Vav’s ideal of Divine Compassion and the call of his Cossack blood to be a warrior in the cause of Divine Justice.

Leading a resistance unit in the frozen forests of Poland, Nissim directly confronts a greater evil than he could ever have imagined. His efforts to fight power with power seemed doomed to futility. Will a simple act of kindness turn out to be the world’s salvation?
