Murder at the Western Wall By Gerald Szyszkowitz, Translation by Todd C. Hanlin

On a recent summer day, CNN reporter Ari Schwartz is assassinated in the shadow of Jerusalem's Western Wall. Who would kill someone at such a holy site? The police have no clues, but Nadja Assad, a reporter-colleague, is driven to investigate the mystery and thus becomes the fearless detective in this triple-murder whodunit. Nadja's search for the truth uncovers the real story behind today's headlines. She and the reader experience warring worlds of religious conviction and attendant violence that is endemic to today's Middle East. In addition, we glimpse the existence of prejudice and incomprehensible brutality on a global scale.
