The Kiss / Scott E. Blumenthal 303 p.

A trio of Klezmer musicians forms in Rovno, Poland, in 1939.  Their music makes people weep or feel joy like they've never known.  As they travel to Moscow and back, playing for their living, stories begin to spread, that the harp played by Aron was once played by King David, and that the music can bring the dead back to life.  Well constructed, fast paced, and suspenseful.  But also facile, hokey, and very TV movie.  (a 1970s TV movie, that is).
