Someone is trying to kill Avram Cohen. And then his long-time assistant and protege, Nissim Levy, is found murdered and Cohen vows to find Levy's killer -- no matter what. In a tale that takes the retired detective from the Frankfurt Book Fair to the dark netherworld of the new Russian Mafia in Israel, Cohen is forced to examine his own life before he can stop a psychopathic killer with a misguided but nonetheless profound motive for murder.The character of Avram Cohen is revealed here as never before: a deeply complex man with a difficult past trying hard to be moral in a world where greed rules. As The New York Times Book Review observed: "Having created a highly intelligent detective to handle the brainwork in this series, Mr. Rosenberg does not waste that shrewd and subtle mind".
