'Political thriller, absurdist farce, globe trotting romance: multiple forms jostle in a beautifully written take on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.' - Mail on Sunday. A work of psychological precision and moral force which captures both timeless human truths and the perplexities of the present day, Englander is a wonderfully gifted writer. Prisoner Z, held at a black site in the Negev desert for a dozen years, has only his guard for company. How does a nice American Jewish boy from Long Island wind up being an Israeli spy working for Mossad, and later, a traitor to his adopted country? What does it mean to be loyal? What does it mean to be a traitor when the ideals you cherish are betrayed by the country you love? Z can do nothing but think of the past and where her life went wrong and reveal to the reader in a series of often gripping flashbacks. A spellbinding political thriller, spy novel, love story. 252pp, paperback.
