A chilling and explosive tale of revenge set in the Middle East from
acclaimed suspense novelist Peter Abrahams, aka Spencer Quinn, author of
the Chet and Bernie Mysteries.
After his unit is decimated in the Israeli war, Lieutenant Isaac Rehv
returns to Haifa to find his family savagely murdered. Torn apart with
grief and rage, he vows that his enemies--and the enemies of
Israel--will pay.
Months later, Rehv, who is a former literary scholar and professor of
Arabic literature, has moved to America and is waiting tables at a local
cafe in Manhattan. There, a chance encounter with a member of the
Israeli resistance called Haganah and a botched assassination attempt
will sow the seeds of a brilliantly orchestrated revenge plot. As Rehv
prepares to unleash his secret weapon on an unsuspecting Islamic world,
a terrorist watch group, led by a former CIA agent named Krebs, follows
his every move. But Krebs may be too late to prevent the coming
destruction.
