Hanna Heath, a rare-book conservator is hired to to work on the Sarajevo Haggadah, one of the earliest Jewish volumes ever to be illuminated with images. The story unfolds as each clue Hanna finds in the book takes us on a journey back in time to discover how the book survived through history and in the end, how the book was created. I loved this story, the writing was perfect and captivating with rich historical detail, not at all as dry as the subject matter may have seemed. I found it even more exciting to know that this story is based on an actual book and some of the historical details are accurate. I would highly recommend People of the Book.
