Media Reviews
Avraham is quiet, stubbornly impressive and the novel is full of insights into love and sex -- Marcel Berlins * The Times *
*STAR PICK* Takes us into the hearts of these compassionately drawn characters. Sensitive, perceptive and quietly memorable. * Crime Club *
He writes in such a cool, one-paced style . . . Powerful insight . . . 'Those Swedish and Danish cops, they're not real,' Mishani seems to be saying. 'My steady, plodding Israelis show what police work really is.' * Jewish Chronicle *
