Santa Fe Sister: A Novel

Jeannie Weiner’s compelling novel weaves quirky, yet believable characters, through the ordeal of a father’s haunting past.

The Jewish community in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is unaware of the secret of one of its leaders, Zoltan Klein. Zoltan’s dark rages could tear apart his new life as his daughter, Mitzi, tries to break free of her father’s old world traditions. Mitzi’s rebellion leads to a dramatic turn from her family and unexpected results.

The author’s years in Santa Fe provide a loving description of the tiny Jewish community.

Santa Fe Sister is original, a page-turner.

Tony Hillerman, New Mexico’s most endearing writer of Navajo mysteries, after reading Santa Fe Sister, told the author, “You have talent!”
