Thriller & suspense

A thrilling novel set in Israel.

Leon Uris's world-bestselling novel Exodus became a profound influence on thoughts and feelings about the state of Israel.

Sworn enemy - and secret friend - of Gideon Asch, Israeli settler, pioneer, fighter, the Haj and his men are seen first in all their false courage and manic ambition.

Theirs is a world of oaths, blood, death and vengeance.

But then his association with Asch takes him elsewhere - into diplomacy, and towards leadership of another kind...
