Your story is one of my favorites. I've spent time in Israel and a little in the territories but haven't been elsewhere in the Middle East. my understanding however is that if you know hebrew it's relatively easy to learn arabic and vice versa. while the alphabets are different the sounds and construction are similar. At any rate, I love your writing and the story. It has captivated me. Thanks so much for the excellent update. You can see that Elizabeth cares for Will and is petrified to lose him like she lost her last love. I look forward to the next installment!
