As Roman troops close in on the fortress of Masada, three young women care for doves. Shirah has incredible faith, but the miracles that faith brings forth are called witchcraft. Yael is an outsider trying desperately to fit in and to survive. Aziza wants to be a warrior and not the frail woman other see. Together they discover friendship, romance, and a story that will mark Jewish history forever.
From Roma Downey and Mark Burnett, The Dovekeepers is based on the book by Alice Hoffman. Cote de Pablo, Rachel Brosnahan, and Diego Boneta tell the events of the Siege of Masada. Look for The Dovekeepers on CBS starting tonight at 9/8c!
