MONTREAL - Oct. 31, 2016 - PRLog -- 8th House Publishing is proud to announce the release and availability of Abraham Boyarsky's novel "The Chassidic Trauma Unit".

Sender Pleskin is a self-proclaimed trauma specialist dedicated to serving his Chassidic community and to 'gently' nudging it into modernity.

When a Bubmer Hasid child falls inexplicably into a coma, Sender and his team jump to action. Hunting down leads in his investigation, Sender follows the signs that he interprets to be Divine Providence as they lead them down a circuitous path that will test not only his faith, but all he was and is.
