Synopsis
When her parents decide to buy and move into the run-down Jewel Motor Inn in
upstate New York, it’s not exactly eleven-year-old Miriam Brockman’s dream. She
misses her familiar routine and life in Manhattan, especially Shabbat dinners with
friends and family.
It turns out that running a motel is a lot of hard work, but it’s also a bit of an

Donovan, the local priest.
But when it becomes clear that only a miracle is going to save the Jewel from
bankruptcy, Jewish Miriam and Catholic Kate decide to create one of their own …
