Roy Cohen, a fifteen-year-old Israeli teenager, emigrates with his family from Israel to America. Thrown unprepared into the arms of rich, Beverly Hills, teenage society, his life is changed forever when an attempt to break up a fight in the school cafeteria lands him a punch to the face. Regaining consciousness, he finds himself in the arms of the most beautiful and delicate girl he has ever seen. This angel of a girl, Lisa, becomes his obsession for the rest of his life. They fall profoundly in love, spending their High School years together, experiencing periods of crisis and great emotional intensity. Problems arise when Lisa goes to college, becomes estranged, and while Roy is occupied with the success of his rock band Expel, the past begins to catch up with his angel, threatening their relationship and her very life. This powerful and moving love story stretches over two decades. Among others, it gives the reader a taste of what it means to be an immigrant boy in America, a Jew, an Israeli and an I.D.F. soldier.
